You should avoid the stock Firefox install on Steam Deck as it's badly outdated (updated)

Quoting: CyborgZetaSo I disabled the read-only filesystem, removed Firefox, and then re-enabled it. All good now.
That change will be likely lost though when you do a new SteamOS upgrade, due to how upgrades are handled. Still for now it's a neat little adjustment for people who want to rid themselves fully of the outdated version. Hopefully Valve will sort this now with us highlighting it.

Hmm... I'm pro abortion rights. But I think this topic is different from say racism. I understand why some people feel strongly about abortion and couldn't possibly be positive about this.
I understand what you mean but some have taken it too far in reply to others that we’ve had to remove.

Europa Universalis IV (Native Linux)
Unsupported

Ok, without k&m things will be difficult but plain unsupported? For Linux Native?
Being Linux Native has very little really to do with if it's properly workable on Deck.

Quoting: JpxeHas it improved since last time you checked?
Last time Deck Verified wasn't a thing, so it's not a direct comparison to how I did it before.
