Are you not aware of “Desktop mode”? Hold down the power button for a few second, click “switch to desktop mode,” and you’re literally using a fully functioning Linux PC.
Comment on The Plucky Squire recently came out, and used the Steam Deck to represent PC

Ok, how do I use rsync on the deck then? (/s, but I’d still love to know)

Just… do it? It’s just a normal Linux underneath.

Wait, its installed by default? I assumed I had to install it, which would not be possible, because its immutable and there is no rsync flatpak (I think).

You can just install a distro of your choice on it that might or might not be immutable if you want. In the end, yes, it is a PC

What do you mean immutable?

SteamOS is immutable, so you can’t install system-wide apps on there, only flatpaks, appimages etc.
