Steam deck custom games on home

Submitted ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩ by ⁨TheAmazingMrSuit@lemmy.world⁩ to ⁨steamdeck@sopuli.xyz⁩

I’m sure this has been asked, but is there a way to lock specific games onto my home? I want to keep games I usually play there and hide things I either don’t, or that I tested once and opted not to keep playing. Using the “hide” option feels a bit too aggressive for that since I’m happy with them being in my library, but I want a clean, curated home screen. CSS didn’t have anything that I could find but maybe there’s something I’m missing somewhere? Does anyone know of an option?

Not really. I mean you could boot into some other frontend that would support this. But at that point I guess the effort far outweighs the benefits.

Honestly, I wouldn’t even bother with hiding the games. Sounds tedious. The games you played last appear at the front by themselves. So as soon as you start your favourite games they will all be at the front. And if you don’t do that so often, maybe they aren’t your “real” favourites. At least for the moment.

Doesn’t it just show the most recently played games first?

  Yeah, but that’s my exact problem, I want to keep a specific list of games, not the last played. I would much rather open it to see Elden ring and the other games with beautiful artwork I chose from decky, rather than something like onlycans (don’t get me wrong, great game, but I would simply rather see ER instead). It’s about preference exclusively and as someone who likes to tinker and tune every aspect, I think it would be nice to have the option to lock in a list of games instead of having to boot any game I want on the home every time

Not quite what you want, but I would just use the library favorites screen instead.
