• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is your favorite Steam deck Bluetooth keyboard?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I dunno, I recently bought two keyboards and both could do all theee, wired, wireless with the dongle, or Bluetooth with no dongle. I have a keychron and love it - if you’re looking for desktop keyboard, that’s a great choice although pricy. Logitech makes some good travel ones too that operate in all three modes. Try those brands if you’re having trouble finding Bluetooth keyboards.

  I have a number of Bluetooth keyboards and they all seem to work just fine with the steam deck. I think you can pick the keyboard you want style wise and you’ll be fine.

  +1 this is the answer.

  I’ve been a fan of Nintendo since the nes days. But their anti consumer behavior is too much. I haven’t bought anything from them in years, and I don’t think I ever will again.

  You’re 100% right. It’s overkill and endless tinkering. But it’s also oh so good and you know it :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨folder syncronization⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This answer is FAR too complicated for the task asked for - yet I still recommend it to everyone because they are so damn handy.

  Get a NAS.

  You can set your own up or buy something like synology. I personally went the synology route and I adore that stupid box. Synology drive does exactly what you want across all my devices - PCs, phones, iPads, you name it. Real time sync. Keeps old copies in history. It does my photos off my phone. Every family member has their own personal space and keeps their stuff separate and private. My daughter uses my NAS as her personal OneDrive/dropbox/icloud. In your example drive would be installed on both the laptop and the steam deck. Both point to a location on the NAS and sync to and from there. EZ

  Seriously, NASs are amazing. Get one and solve 100 little annoyances in one go.

  Now that all said, for the question without a NAS. I would imagine just about any backup flatpak could handle backing up / synchronizing a folder. The trick is what’s the destination? If it’s the laptop folder, that’s fine - but that means the laptop needs to be on and connected to the network to work. I’d start there. Ideally it’d be smart enough to detect the destination folder coming online and immediately start the backup/sync.

  If they didn’t want me sniffing it, then they shouldn’t have made it smell EXACTLY like my first PC. Until then I’m huffing it like ashy larry hits the pipe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I use ProtonVPN on my Steam Deck in desktop mode?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  So steam deck is arch based. I just installed arch on my desktop with gnome. I couldn’t get proton vpn to work at all until I installed network-manager-applet. Then it worked fine. (It wouldn’t connect). I had to do a ton of googling before I found that fix, I think a lot of people give up on proton vpn before they find that solution/dependency. It sounds like other packages can provide what proton-vpn is looking for, but I think network-manager-applet gets installed often enough as a dependency where it just works for some people, while for others getting proton to work is a chore.

  Now, I don’t know the full dangers of installing that package on the steam deck, maybe someone smarter can comment on that. But I’m thinking installing that package alongside proton vpn is what you need. It should be noted that I installed network manager from Pac-Man and proton vpn from the AUR. I don’t know how the flatpak would behave - but it didn’t work either without network manager installed.

  Good luck!
