It’s just Nobara for now. If I decide to upgrade the storage I may choose to dual boot, but, I haven’t had a need to yet

I use my Steam Deck as a PC. I mainly use it for web development. The integration between my containerized services (via distrobox) and my IDE was giving me problems, so I went with Nobara Linux. I don’t do a ton of gaming on it these days, but when I do, it is usually 2d games. They work absolutely wonderfully. At the end of the day, it’s just a laptop, and in desktop mode (with an external monitor and keyboard), it is perfectly capable of everything I need it to do.

I’m so glad I bought an additional 3 Steam Controllers when they went on sale before being discontinued. I loved mine too much to risk not having another if it broke

and very old titles that have weirdly restrictive resolutions or control schemes or whathaveyou.

This is correct, but as an addendum, for a lot of very old games (that don’t fall into that previous category), it’s usually easier to get them working under Linux than it is under Windows. Go figure.
