    I used it to watch anime for a month when I was away from my computer haha. It really made me want an oled monitor for my PC, but I realized they are quite expensive. I need to use my deck more in general to be honest.

    I used mine to write an openSUSE image for my laptop, and a LibreELEC image for raspi just this weekend.

        The Deck is plugged into a hub with a monitor, m+kb, and a focusrite Scarlett solo, and Reaper is the DAW I use.

        It’s pretty much just plug and play, I may have had to finnick with the software to get the focusrite going right away but it wasn’t much time at all, if any. Other than that, recording and editing as normal!

    My friend screenshares shows with me and we watch and talk to help me fall asleep at night ❤️ It works better on the deck than my phone

      Yeah, the Steam Deck is kind of the middle ground between a too big laptop and too small phone screen.

    When I am travelling I use the deck and dock to order product (Libra office), Email, checking credentials of staff and watch video.

    Only issue I have is the stupid jumping of frames when watching video in firefox due to not knowing how to turn of the stupid “smoothing” crap.

    Though I have yet to get a Deck for myself, I’d probably use it a lot to read comics. Having used the Vita a lot for that, being able to control the comics with a physical controller was fantastic, and the far greater processing power of the Deck should also avoid pages taking a long while to load (loading Humble Bundle’s ebooks in measly 512 MB of RAM is an experience).

      This is a place where tablets, even really low-end ones, are far superior. Hard to beat not having to zoom.
