Cool! That fits so well. Does the steam deck overheat sitting like that in the case?
It'll certainly suck up loose fibers from the case. There are foldable stands out there that become very tiny when folded. That's way better than clogging up the vents with dust and fibers.
Now I'm all for clean airflow, but there is no way the sd case has enough loose fiber to clog them massive vents.
Fibers loosen all the time from any form of fabric. Dust also sticks to the inside of the case. It's inevitable unless you leave the case in a vacuum.
I have a noname chinese case on the deck, and it's got a but of a lump in the back which clears the intake vent. that helps. i'll only use desktop stuff set up this way, the fan doesn't come on.
