Yesterday was the first time I got the survey on my Deck.

I got it on the desktop (as I often am during the day because I do all my work on it), and noticed that while it reported the device as Valve manufactured and the OS correctly, a whole bunch of other data was wrong, like it said the device didn't support touch, etc.

Should I have taken the survey on Game Mode? Is it even possible to get the survey in Game Mode?

Yup, I got it recently in regular gaming mode. I doubt it matters which one the survey gets taken in, it gathers system info.

Did you happen to notice if yours also said touch support: none?

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 months ago

I didn't. I rarely use desktop mode, so I doubt anything odd was going on.

If there's a report somewhere I can review, I'm happy to look it up.
