Getting my steam deck tomorrow. Already had Linux like steam deck on my laptop a while ago (didn’t work well because fuck Nvidia)
But wanted to know what you all think is important to put on a steam deck, that’s not something that’s not what duckduckgo says with the websites it has. (I worded that horribly)
What are some niche things can I could do/install/play on the steam deck that most people wouldn’t really do or think about doing?
I don’t know a lot about Linux as I wish but I know a ok ish amount. Just wanting to find anything really interesting or useful to do with my steam deck
Also anybody know any casual games I can play randomly on public transit and don’t have to sit down and play. Things that I can just easily stop. (Something like balentro kinda way you can just stop whenever)

I will say that the support for some of these “less used” games is very difficult to get running for someone who hasn’t used Linux before and controls will be tough depending on the game.
Getting OSRS with runelite was difficult but nice once i got it working. You need to get Wine to run the Jagex launcher then install Runelite separately. Don’t ask me how as I hardly remember how I did it myself lol
Also I haven’t tried this but getting Flash games would be dope. I don’t think I’ve seen anyone try it yet, but I’m sure someone has.

Celeste, Doom 1993, webfishing single player.
However the ‘sleep’ feature means most games work well portably, you don’t really need a special game (but still get Celeste it’s awesome!) just playing the games you own already will be MORE than enough.
