I love the Steam Deck. It’s a very impressive device, and ultimately is just a small Linux computer with decent specs. I don’t use it a ton unless we’re traveling, but I’ve been very happy with it.

For what it’s worth, a distro like Mint or Pop really doesn’t have too much of a learning curve as long as you don’t have oddball hardware. They’re very user friendly.

Feel free to hop into the Zulip server if you ever need some help troubleshooting!
