It's surprisingly boring tbh. Most things, including all the gamepad stuff, work as expected out of the box. It's quite performant and could easily replace a desktop with the dock, but for portability a laptop makes more sense. I'll keep using Steam OS on it, because I don't have a use case for arch on it atm.

been keeping an eye out for a laptop with as good of a price point and performance but everything is so expensive. may get a steam deck + dock while it's on sale.

SteamOS is basically an immutable distro of Arch anyway so you're not missing out on much. Friend of mine who uses Endeavour did not like that because it means he can't use the AUR, though he missed the point on why SteamOS had to be immutable in the first place.
