And if I want something better, that doesn't turn into another day at the office?
Buddy you don't have to use the desktop, its there because the thing runs Linux and having it makes it easier for folks to install unapproved third party apps. It's a handheld gaming PC. If you don't want it to feel like a day at the office, don't use desktop mode.
@ArsonButCute
Now that's much more encouraging than any of the other replies I have gotten👍
@leeloo @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I think you want a Switch ... go for it.
@leeloo @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I'm just responding to why anyone would want a DE on a Steam Deck, which is for that reason.
I hope you realize that it's not the UI that normal gamer users will see, ONLY if they want to use that option. It's about power, controlling your hardware and doing the fuck you want with it.
@lps @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social
I haven't decided.
For now I'm sticking with my Playstation 2, which runs the games just as well now as it did 25 years ago.
Modded? Or you have a stockpile of disk drives?
@HertzDentalBar
Drives? What are you talking about?
You want the steam deck and to buy games on GOG so your games work from 25 years ago like your PlayStation.
You can also play those PlayStation games on your steam deck.
Simply ignore the ability to use the desktop mode of the steam deck.
