While I don't agree with you on the usability of Big Picture on Windows, I certainly agree with you on one point; it would be great if other game launchers could be seamlessly installed on the Steam Deck.

However I'm happy that other launchers are available for those who go through the slightly lengthy process.

PS: I don't agree there are 1000s of games not able to run on the Steam Deck, it's mostly these games on the list. (https://areweanticheatyet.com/)

No, I'm not saying I'm cut off from running thousands of games. I'm cut off from thousands of games that I own already in other libraries and I can't play on a Steam Deck out of the box.

Most of them would gladly run just fine if I bought them off of Valve. But since I already bought them I'm not buying them again. So I'm cut off. So I'll default to Windows until that changes.
