A lot, but I think the people that get the most use are husbands and dads. For example my wife likes to hang out upstairs and not feel so disconnected so we can talk still. Steam deck is great for this and progressing single player games.

The steam deck, I got super fixated on it and bought one very impulsively and I use it almost daily. It’s also made gaming accessible for me again!

Another USB C port would be awesome. And better hardware of course, so I can also play new AAA games. And not really related to the deck it self but the steam shop kinda sucks on the deck.

Unless you put in the steam launch option to pretend your PC is a steam deck. Then a lot of games will cooperate lol.

The SteamDeck made see that it is possible to run games perfectly fine on linux. It was the one thing that kept me on Windows. I made the switch with my desktop 3 weeks ago, I installed Nobara and haven't looked back since.

For all Steam Deck users: RE2 doesnt work 🥺 Needs some tweaking to run just like Dino Crisis 2. RE3 runs good but controls need to be configured to be able to play.

the game used to be barely playable on steam deck, which was pretty cool. but now its not worth the space to even try and run.
