Been thinking about getting a steam deck. Talk me in or out of it. I've got a desktop, but thinking something handheld would be good when I want to sit on the couch. What are your favorite and least favorite things about your steam deck?

Overall, I've honestly had a really positive experience. Most games I've tried work out of the box, performance is impressive, the control they give users is awesome, the support they are giving the Linux community is awesome, and it's great to have a second "PC" to game with my fiance or take with me on trips.

So with all that said, my biggest con by far is the official dock. I still have tons of problems hooking it to different TVs, and even when it does work there are issues with audio crackling.
