Nothing can happen using Decky Loader and you don’t have to load the bleeding edge plugins if you don’t want to. It all up to you which plugins you use. It’s one of the most useful tools for the Deck. The plugins you use could be really basic, like helping you change icons on the games, reach menu for Bluetooth without going into settings, getting HowLongToBeat stats on your game info, etc. It’s all very handy and extremely easy to set up. YouTube is your friend on this one.

You should also check out CryoUtilities. It’s not going to be for you if you don’t wanna use third party apps right now. But at least check out his youtube video explaining the tool anyway. You will find it interesting and learn quite a lot even of you don’t install the software.
