Has anyone tried / have any experience of gnome on deck?
Finally gotten around to fiddling with some “off-piste” gaming this weekend… and fully remembering why I dislike KDE (slow, ugly, crashy)
A quick look on Reddit says that it is possible to run gnome on deck, but just wondering if anyone in the GoL had tried it and what the experience was like?

Where did you see that it is possible to run GNOME on the Deck? I am curious myself.

If you want GNOME, install ChimeraOS. It recently switched from old to new BPM, added GNOME as desktop mode and added audio support for Steam Deck.
