- Comment on Will anything dethrone the Steam Deck? Probably not -GamingonLinux 8 minutes ago:
I’m sure Microsoft’s answer will be an Edge-powered handheld interface with the entire W11 OS underneath.
- Comment on Microsoft Gaming CEO: “I think we should have a handheld, too” 1 week ago:
The SteamDeck itself is in loss leader territory.
- Comment on Microsoft Gaming CEO: “I think we should have a handheld, too” 1 week ago:
Microsoft : “When we added all the extra ‘features’ of Win11 into our Xbox OS, we saw a severe drop in performance. So we have kept them separate.” Customers : “So you do agree the features in Win11 are detrimental to the user experience?” Microsoft : “Fuck no, those features are essential for a user. Btw, have you upgraded to Win11?”
- Comment on Valve has little to worry about as new Steam Deck rival arrives 5 weeks ago:
Is S mode really that popular? I’ve never seen that in an enterprise setting. End users won’t want S mode because it will limit functionality.
- Comment on An Alternate Reality Of The Steam Deck (Anti-cheat Support!) 1 month ago:
Suddenly people have to track not only if a game runs on Steam Deck, but also explain them on top of Proton and all other stuff that they need an alternate version. The website for the games would need to list both compatibility too. It’s a mess.
I didn’t think of this. Thanks.
Someone mentioned this below but having an immutable filesystem should be proof enough that it’s a secure gaming device and should immediately be allowed by an anti-cheat system. But I guess game devs really need their “I-need-to-monitor-everything” itch scratched so we are still stuck with Linux incompatibility.
I would not approve your suggestion (note I did not downvote, because you just want to discuss this).
Cheers buddy! I just wanted to know the community’s views about this. ✌🏻

With secure boot, combined with a signed kernel and initramfs, and basic TPM keys, every official Steam Deck can have full hardware attestation the same way mobile phones and some laptops do. This, combined with existing anti cheat solutions, can work to detect cheating.
This. We already have a secure environment for gaming. At this point, it’s essentially better than what Windows is offering. The only reason game devs carefully ignore this issue is because of market share.
- Comment on An Alternate Reality Of The Steam Deck (Anti-cheat Support!) 1 month ago:
Agreed.
But it will allow for more games to run, and a significant number of people might consider buying the Deck since it can play their favourite competitive games (Valorant/PUBG/Destiny).

- Comment on EA SPORTS WRC will be adding EA anticheat, game will not playable any more. On ProtonDB game is rated Platinum 1 month ago:
As a hardcore Linux fan, the only way I see game devs publishing native Linux ports is when when it has a >30% market share.
But I’m pretty sure the publishers will still come up with excuses like “The Linux platform is uncontrollable; there is no way to verify the platform integrity because everyone has root”
