I’ve been on the fence for a while thinking about getting myself a steam deck. I got a great gaming computer and I’m wondering if it can possible accompany it in some way, or is it just the excitement of getting new tech kicking in.

What do you do with your steam deck? What makes you glad that you got it?

I play a stupid amount of Stardew on my SteamDeck.

It's also just nice being able to play my Steam Library on a portable device and having my Cloud Saves available as well, I'm a big "like to game in bed or on the couch" kind of girl.

That’s really cool! Do you know if it’s possible to get cloud-saves on emulation games as well or is Steam games the only way to go?

Build a home server and find someway to auto transfer files to it every so often and export those files every so often

Personally I just share a folder on my gaming rig and then use a backup tool to save my saves to my rig, then save them back to my deck

All running windows due to a lot of games with anticheat not working
