Since you didn't elaborate what or why, then no you're wrong nothing has changed.

Well, for one, there has been a dramatic increase in the amount of compatible software, which has been a big factor in the success of the Steam Deck and was a big complaint about the original Steam Box/Machine.

In fact, there is data that compatibility has dropped due to advances in proprietary Direct X protocol being way more efficient over Vulkan or OpenGL
