I do hope they focus a bit on the UI going forward - we’ve noticed a lot of silly little bugs while either using the Steam Deck controls or a controller.
A little hard to close a window without focus when using a controller…
Comment on Steam Deck gets a Battery Charge Limit control in the latest Beta

This has been possible via the BIOS for a while now, but it’s long overdue at the OS level. I love that Value keeps adding little QoL improvements to the steam deck, it’s turned out to be one of the best pieces of tech I’ve ever bought.

Also I literally can’t get it to use a plugged controller when docked. Sure, it will charge it and I can pair it with Bluetooth and it works, but it’s a little silly that I can’t just use it as “pure” USB controller (even though it works flawlessly in that way on multiple PCs, including a Linux desktop, and through weird peripherals like my monitor’s USB hub).
Streaming games on the home wifi is also basically non-functional in the OS, even though it works pretty damn well when I do it through Moonlight. I’m assuming the steam version doesn’t do enough compression (and yes I have tried tweaking the settings)

It’s so weird that it doesn’t have it because both my kubuntu and endeavorOS installs have it by default. Like that’s a basic feature

It was already an option in desktop mode afaik, just wasn’t part of game mode.

Decky has a Powertools plugin, what I’ve been doing, can set per game profiles and restrict charge rates as well with that.
