I used to game on Arch Linux for years. Ever since I got my Steam Deck, I stopped using my laptop. Specs may be slightly worse, but I'm no longer tied to my desk and can play more. So worth the money.

I've had the exact same experience. My desktop can play at higher framerates, with better graphics on a larger screen - yet here I am playing on the SteamDeck. Also love the sleep/wake. Being able to have a 30 minute game break and pausing it whenever is so good.
