Steam Deck

A place to discuss and support all things Steam Deck.
Replacement for r/steamdeck_linux.
As Lemmy doesn't have flairs yet, you can use these prefixes to indicate what type of post you have made, eg:
[Flair] My post title
The following is a list of suggested flairs:
[Discussion] - General discussion.
[Help] - A request for help or support.
[News] - News about the deck.
[PSA] - Sharing important information.
[Game] - News / info about a game on the deck.
[Update] - An update to a previous post.
[Meta] - Discussion about this community.
Some more Steam Deck specific flairs:
[Boot Screen] - Custom boot screens/videos.
[Selling] - If you are selling your deck.
These are not enforced, but they are encouraged.
Rules:
- Follow the rules of Sopuli
- Posts must be related to the Steam Deck in an obvious way.
- No piracy, there are other communities for that.
- Discussion of emulators are allowed, but no discussion on how to illegally acquire ROMs.
- This is a place of civil discussion, no trolling.
- Have fun.

MODERATORS
Did they say where ppl could go(like here for example)?
Good they joined. I hope everyone will find this sub :D
My question is how amenable will reddit mods be to creating posts between the blackout and API change effect that explicitly promote lemmy, kbin, or whatever alternatives to their communities. I imagine it will totally depend on the mods.
The best non-aggressive way is to post quality content here, then post a link to the lemmy page in a subreddit. Content is king they say, and where it's hosted owns the content.
Or to put it another way: post the content here and post links to here on other social media. Stop treating Reddit as a first-class citizen, it's just another channel where posting links will pull people here. Eventually folk will switch to the discussions here instead of commenting there. Play the long game.
That's a really good point. It's what got me to stop using StumbleUpon and stick around on reddit in the first place some 15 years ago.
