I've been thinking about getting a Deck and was wondering if anyone has experience running Bedrock Minecraft on it? Specifically with regards to controls, and updates. A few years ago I was playing Bedrock on my linux laptop, and it seemed like there were times where the client would be outdated, keeping me from playing with my kid.

I 've been playing minecraft bedrock using the steam deck, over LAN with my daughter on the Windows PC. We needed two Minecraft accounts $29 from Microsoft. The deck controls worked identical to Xbox controller once I loaded the Minecraft bedrock launcher from the discover app and added it as a non steam game to game mode. That was the key to get the controller to behave right. It all works like a dream now and is super fun!
