Steamdeck. Had some cocktails and bought it, got it and had buyers remorse. Figured I'd give it a shot anyway.

Love of gaming rekindled, now I don't doomscroll during downtime at work.

Installing bazzite tomorrow if I get around to it.

edit: installed bazzite in a few hours this morning, zero to hero. If you fuck with the penguin you're going to want to do this. Very simple and straightforward as far as linux installs go. My deck is a 64GB LCD that I upgraded to 2TB and it worked fine, so the 64GB limitation is just the SSD, not anything to do with the deck itself.

Don't forget to backup your saves for games that don't do cloud save. I have fast internet and most of my games are also installed on my desktop PC so I didn't worry about backing up any of that.

Same. I had a Switch but there were too many games I couldn't play, and my PC can't handle anything beyond Stardew Valley.

Got a second hand Deck and I can hardly believe how good this thing is!
