Oh I love decky. I'd love something automated that doesn't need me to go into desktop mode so I'll look for that.

to clarify, once you set up Syncthing, it runs in the background even in gaming mode! You do need desktop mode to add new games to syncthing, but I think there's not really a good way around that since every non-steam game has its own save file location. Plus you need desktop mode to install non-steam games anyway.

That is really good to know! I'll go with Sync thing, since I did want as much of a forget and use type situation for games I did have set up.

The one downside to syncthing is that it needs two machines running at the same time to sync them, my workaround for that is to have a raspberry pi running it at home all the time :p
