It's a real shame that Valve didn't do what the vast majority of hardware manufactures did when asking for a linux drivers!

"We don't support that OS you will have to rely on third party support or write your own"

There's already over 1,200 titles either Verified or Playable for Steam Deck

So basically you are saying there are more playable games for the steam deck than steam decks shipped :grin:

Quoting: jensDoes anybody knows what gave the push for KDE? I mean looking a bit from the outside, I would say Gnome Desktop seems more suitable for such a form factor incl. touch input.. or is the display without touch input?

(Just to be sure, I’m really not interested in opinions why KDE is better than Gnome or any other desktop or vice versa, that’s highly subjective, I’m just genuine interested in Valves thoughts and reasonings)
That's easy. KDE look and works more like Windows than Gnome does, so anyone that's not familiar with anything else will feel at home using it.
It's also just better !

*hides.....

Quoting: F.UltraDigital Foundry is ecstatic (PS4 console quality on a Handheld):
That one really did surprise tbh. He even stated it exceeded his expectations :huh:

When I read LTT's headline I first thought, **** not going to be good but turned out positive and the same with GN.
