This was already covered in a video by Dave2d (Lemmy discussion here), but it's great to see more widespread coverage of how great performance is for SteamOS vs windows.
Some highlights:
A place to discuss and support all things Steam Deck.
Replacement for r/steamdeck_linux.

Rules:
I'm pretty sure it's mandatory that any Chinese owned company has to have backdoors and provide access to the government. I've read interviews where people talked about running companies in China, and they would talk about how government employees would come and install hardware in all their server rooms, and they couldn't touch any of it or do anything about it.
I don't think it's a coincidence that most kernel anti-cheat are developed/used by companies that are at least partially Chinese owned.
Yeah it is suspicious. Would be interesting if someone tried to decompile them to try and see if they hold any secret or malicious functions. I know that many of them have serious security vulnerabilities as is.
Considering that Vanguard has already been bypassed at least once (see dailydarkweb.net/vanguard-bypa… ), I think somebody must already know if the tool is ultimately malicious or not. Problem is, the somebody that knows has a vested interest in not disclosing any details, being a cheat bypasser and all.
