I 100% agree. I sometimes have a game going downstairs and then start a game on my steam deck upstairs and have to put it I to offline mode first. It works, but it’s a slight hassle that need not be.

Family Sharing enables you to play games from other family members’ libraries, even if they are online playing another game
That’s a great first step, but I would also like to be able to play another game from my own library on another device (e.g. steam deck and pc) at the same time

You could make a second account, add it to your family, and use one account for your PC and one for your deck.

That’s one possible workaround, but that will, obviously, break stuff like cloud saving and achievement progress. So, not ideal, but probably viable for some situations.
