I’m gonna dip my toes into volunteering as a Flatpak/Flathub developer advocate—basically, providing a human contact at a real company that can help larger apps/companies get their apps in front of Linux (and thus Steam Deck!) users.
What are some of the biggest apps you think are missing from Flathub—or for apps already there, which are the ones you’d like to see verified?
Question pour les amateurs de #metroidvania : à quoi jouer, dans le même genre, sur #steamdeck, en attendant #Blasphemous 2 ? J'ai évidemment fait Hollow Knight, certains des Castlevania et Metroid (les épisodes GBA notamment), le premier Ori... mais pas trop accroché à Dead Cells, le côté rogue-lite me plaît moins.
Je sais qu'il y a des jeux du genre moins connus, j'ai fait un peu Axiom Verge ou Guacamelee mais sans avoir d'énorme coup de coeur : ils méritent peut-être que je m'acharne ?
People who have or know someone who has a #SteamDeck...where do you or they use it most? I'm trying to understand better where most people are using it.
I'll keep saying it, because it keeps coming up. If you're working in the FreeDesktop, Linux, or Flatpak spaces, you need to understand this, even if you don't personally care about gaming or Steam Deck.
After a full month with my #Steam OS console, I can safely say that it's the best gaming experience I've ever had: start a game on the TV and pick it up later on the #SteamDeck, amazing performance + all the commodities of Steam OS!
And yet, I'd say it's not worth it for most people to build something like this, compared to a #Playstation5 for example.
So, let's see what I picked, the issues I encountered, and the general experience!
A question to the #steamdeck community : is there a recommended setting to run #baldursgate3 on it? One of my concerns is that the fans don't sound like a Boeing taking off.
Perchè #Linux ha superato il record del 3% delle installazioni globali su PC dopo anni di stagnazione? Io non mi sorprendo, #Gnome nelle ultime versioni ha finalmente creato un ambiente semplice e minimale che non fosse un'ennesima complessa copia di Windows. #Flatpack e #Snap permettono finalmente installazioni delle applicazioni senza complicazioni!
Ultimo colpaccio è stato l'adozione di linux su #SteamDeck nel 2022 che ha portato molta più compatibilità con i giochi 👍
A top-10 ISV has asked if Flathub can provide how many installs of their app are coming from Steam Deck users.
Today, we can’t—we’d need a change in Flatpak itself to add the OS name/version to the user-agent sent along with install/update transactions. The best we may be able to do today is see the exact versions of OSTree and Flatpak that are included in SteamOS, check if those are relatively unique, and provide a rough estimate based on that.
Anyone who is reading this plays #Linux games on their TV in the living room? What's your setup? Do you just have #SteamDeck hooked-up with a dock or do you use Steam Link software on your TV to stream #VideoGames from your gaming PC or do you have a "Steam Machine" type of a dedicated device just for TV #gaming? I wish to hear about it.
Drôle de vie que celle de l'homme qui a #BaldursGate 3 et #Starfield d'installés sur son #Steamdeck et qui préfère lancer le nouveau DLC de The Case of the Golden Idol.
My #SteamDeck is pretty much useless since I lent it out. Every game that's a bit more complex results in a reboot.
Wanted to play Fallout 4 again and despite the fact I reduced the graphics settings and the framerate to 40 after the first crash it still crashed three additional times in the character editor.
Pretty much every 3D game is unplayable since he had it for a few weeks. This is so frustrating.
I wonder if the Steam Deck is just not build for 3 user accounts. Or if some unknown power brick killed it. The Steam Deck is just such a weird device sometimes, it could be everything.
I probably should just reflash it with a clean version of Steam OS to start fresh. Maybe this will solve the problems.
Les trois principales causes du réchauffement climatique lié à l'activité humaine :
1/ les voitures
2/ l'agriculture intensive
3/ mon #Steamdeck quand il fait tourner Baldur's Gate 3
I play #Diablo4 primarily on #Xbox. But I’m heading to #SouthAfrica for a month and I want be portable. Gonna try to install it on #SteamDeck and use the same account and character.
The #Flatpak is a community effort, automated from the official release. That feels a bit off for your password manager; the thing that holds all your secrets.
A community post from 2021 asking them to maintain it only got 211 votes, 117 likes, and 46 comments but over 10k views. I and other #OpenSource folks commented and said we'd be happy to help, but never heard back.
I am interested in steamdeck but I have heard that it is really heavy if you are holding it for many hours.
Does this console worth it? Also how hot does it get in the summer if you are doing demanding things without AC?
I ditched my Steam Deck 4 months ago -- but I'm going back | Digital Trends (www-digitaltrends-com.cdn.ampproject.org)
About four months ago, I ditched my Steam Deck for Asus' ROG Ally. But with some distance, I'm going back to Valve's handheld. Here's why.
