I used Ubuntu briefly years ago but never really dove into the world of Linux. Are there any useful or fun programs for Linux that work well in desktop mode on the deck? Thanks

      Second this. KDEconnect is running on all of my devices. It is really great on the steam deck if you don’t have a keyboard because you can just send the clipboard from your phone. Super handy!

        That’s awesome, I don’t own nor have never used steamdeck but I only use Linux on my machines. It’s one of the first installs I ever do during a configuration of a new desktop system.

      So I’m actually trying to download it now. I couldn’t find it in the discover app and when I go to download it from the website it opens the discover app and gives me an error that it cannot find the repositories

      Edit: apparently kdeconnect is just on steamos now and you don’t need to download anything
