Steam Deck
A place to discuss and support all things Steam Deck.

The following is a list of suggested flairs:

Some more Steam Deck specific flairs:

These are not enforced, but they are encouraged.
Rules:

- No piracy, there are other communities for that.

- This is a place of civil discussion, no trolling.
- Have fun.
It may look silly to most people, but it actually looks like a great accessibility device. Assuming it can hold the device without support from the user it would be great for someone who struggles to hold it up or keep their arms bent - use a bluetooth controller on their lap and they’re good to go.
This is dumb
Sorry babe, the Steam deck mount stays on
That's how a brother ends up on the couch, mate
JD VANCE has now entered the chat.
I said ON the couch, sir, not IN the couch
A fast action, fully responsive masturbatorium. Impressive.
PC Gamer magazine and shilling dumb ideas. Name a more iconic duo
As someone who has the mechanism mount mainly for the Kickstand, the Mechanism guy is just doing shit. He made a GoPro adapter and then stuck the Steam Deck on everything he could for the marketing email.
It is a dumb idea, he even mentioned that in the email.
Don't need it. I'm fat.
This is some Wall E shit
The GoPro Mount is made by Mechanism, creators of Deckmate and its associated ecosystem. That means that you'll need the sold separately Deckmate grip before you can even attempt to strap your Steam Deck onto your GoPro harness.
Make a waist mounted version: Steam Dick.
I just use an IKEA Len breastfeeding pillow...
A breastfeeding pillow? Wat?
It's a U-shaped pillow, that you put around your waist. You can also find them advertised as "gaming pillows", for 5 times the price.
Or you can get essentially the same for cheap from IKEA:
But can I use this to attach it to the back of an airline seat?
It's a GoPro mount so you can probably find accessories to attach it to your kitchen aid if you want
I want to see someone all tacticooled out with a steam deck on their plate carrier
