If it could use apple’s messages.app then i would be so happy.
That’s an Apple problem, not a Steam Deck or Linux problem. Apple refuses to allow support on non-Apple hardware.
Comment on There's a reason we aren't as harsh on the Steam Deck. Actually, a couple.

steam deck is locked to a steam account
it requires internet to verify that on first launch
otherwise it is a great device. If it could use apple’s messages.app i would be so happy and give up having a phone and laptop

Don’t they HAVE TO open their messaging app now with the “EU Digital Markets Act and Digital Services Act”?

You can still install whatever OS you want on it, unlike a PS5. It would be nice if you could get into desktop mode without signing in once, but that’s not the end of the world. You need a Steam account to even buy it in the first place, and they’re not tracking you nearly as much as say Microsoft.
