I connect it to my projector to watch content.

Mine spends a lot of time docked to the television so I can torrent/stream things.

Though I have yet to get a Deck for myself, I'd probably use it a lot to read comics. Having used the Vita a lot for that, being able to control the comics with a physical controller was fantastic, and the far greater processing power of the Deck should also avoid pages taking a long while to load (loading Humble Bundle's ebooks in measly 512 MB of RAM is an experience).

I used mine to write an openSUSE image for my laptop, and a LibreELEC image for raspi just this weekend.

What kind of workflow does this involve on your deck?

For anyone wanting to take the deck to the next level and unlock more functionality I can warmly recommend https://bazzite.gg/

I don't know why but bazzite for me was super unstable compared to holo os for my deck
