Hey #Linux gamers here is your chance to tell ASUS we want a Linux-based ROG Ally gaming handheld π§
(mastodon.gamedev.place)
A place to discuss and support all things Steam Deck.
Replacement for r/steamdeck_linux.
As Lemmy doesn't have flairs yet, you can use these prefixes to indicate what type of post you have made, eg:
[Flair] My post title
The following is a list of suggested flairs:
[Discussion] - General discussion.
[Help] - A request for help or support.
[News] - News about the deck.
[PSA] - Sharing important information.
[Game] - News / info about a game on the deck.
[Update] - An update to a previous post.
[Meta] - Discussion about this community.
Some more Steam Deck specific flairs:
[Boot Screen] - Custom boot screens/videos.
[Selling] - If you are selling your deck.
These are not enforced, but they are encouraged.
Rules:
Lacklustre hardware, poor Linux support, and anti-consumer business practices.
These are the things that Asus are all about and itβs why I dismiss their product.
As for the "poor Linux support" - that's exactly what people are talking about reversing. If it officially supported SteamOS and had up-streamed drivers in the kernel, it wouldn't have poor Linux support.
As for the other stuff, sure, perhaps you're right. But nobody is saying you have to buy it. It's still a benefit to you as a SD user to have more people using SteamOS.
