When I went to install a suite of emulators on the Steam Deck, it was one installer and some light configuration. Installing ROMs involved using an app that automatically digs up the box art and adds console collections to the Steam interface.

All of this largely just worked.

As a millenial that was wild. I've never trusted things to just work before but a bunch of open-source devs made it happen. That's what made me realize we live in different times (and why newer generations have no idea how to actually use computers).
