Is anyone using the steam deck as their day to day computer?
I just plugged the steam deck in to a monitor and while I was transferring some roms and started to wonder if it would be feasible to use as a day to day computer while docked.
You're viewing a single thread.
It really depends on ones use case. For example, using it as a (overpowered) office PC is difficult since SteamOS doesn't include CUPS.
If you unlock the root partition, you can install CUPS and whatever else you want. Steam would prefer that you use the Discover store though. Also, if there's an update, the partition will be locked again.
I love to tinker with Linux but I like that the SteamDeck "just works"
Yeah, same. I only needed to install Lutris which for some reason was installed with an old version from the Discover store.
