I feel dumb for not checking that first, thank you!

I know I can install it using Pacman but for that I need to create a root password and then run some command to install programs on the OS which is immutable, but honestly if all I want is to install KDE Connect I see unnecessary to do all that, isn’t there a simpler way?

I already tried with flatpak but there is no KDE-Connect repository in flatpak, and following this Reddit tutorial doesn’t really lead to anything since the repository seems to be dead.

Edit: KDE Connect came pre-installed in the Deck.

Dumb question, the Steam Deck of the image is yours or you could never get it back? In a first instace I think that the Steam Deck in the image was yours.

Are you sure? I just tried disconnecting my console from internet and play some game for a while and then when the play time increased I exit the game and connected to the internet and the play time was actually the same that the previous one before I connected the internet.

Suppose I play X hours on a trip when I have no internet access, and then when I have internet access I connect my Steam Deck and I would expect that if I played X hours on the trip, the hours would sync to my profile and add them to my game, but it doesn’t seem to be like that, am I doing something wrong or is this a normal Steam behavior that can’t be changed?
