I switched to exclusively PC game on my Steam Deck when I got it just under a year ago, because while I could get slightly better performance on my 6 year old desktop, that also came with 10x the power draw.

I play steam games on the Steam Deck, but I'm done with Windows on my PCs, so my next build will be on Linux.

oh this is great news. let's hope the amount of steam deck users increase. it will just make the life of the rest of linux users so much better when it comes to gaming.

Man, i hope Valve continues to be on our side, if they ever pull the rug and start enshittifying the Deck and stuff we Linux gamers are utterly fucked

I'm currently running Manjaro on my desktop, mainly for gaming. Other than the increasingly rare hiccup, it works like a dream. I'm definitely going to get myself a Steam Deck soon.

Thank you Valve for making Linux not only a good, but often times better platform for gaming!

I'm kinda surprised that it's less than half! Even as a desktop Linux user myself, that's a stronger showing from desktop Linux users than I expected.

The big information, is also the steam deck permit to double Linux gamers.

the Steam Deck has become the standard budget PC, and normalized Linux gaming ๐Ÿ˜

This is good.

I hope more dedicated gaming Linux boxes come along ๐Ÿ˜
