Comment on Does anyone else use their steam deck as a PC? How's it?

I have a privacy oriented raspberry pi 400, that i use for my web browsing, banking, office, micro controller and video conversion stuff.

Steam Deck is for games and 3d modelling and other stuff that rp400 might not have enough power for.

Steam Deck is mostly 90% on desktop mode mounted on a dock with external display, mouse and keyboard.

I keep my personal stuff out of Steam Deck because I don’t trust steam + games data gathering.

I alloved my son to scavenge my old desktop PC, because I didn’t need it anymore.

Only gripe is that Arduino IDE is shit on both Steam Deck and RP400, but so far Thonny and micropython has been adequate.
