I agree about the touchpads. Those work great. And most keys can be assigned to.buttons so without keyboard is okay, but some strategy games have a lot of shortcuts and those just work better with a keyboard.

Suspend and resume are indeed fantastic. There is no wait time before you can game.

Yeah, that last part about getting my gaming vibe going is something I recognize. I used to get a lot of joy out of gaming and could spend hours on it. Now it is feeling more and more like something I do just to pass time.

That was my move as well. I did do some upgrades on my PC along the way, but the base was still from 2009 (and I must say, it functioned surprisingly well). But a couple of months back I upgraded my PC as well. But the decline in play time on the Steam Deck was started before the upgrade.

I should probably use it more as you do. Plug it in on the TV and do some group gaming or just for myself, and keep it with me when traveling.

That sucks man. Nice to have the Steam Deck then. At least you have some form of entertainment.

It definitely is, and I really enjoyed it when I got it. But I do run into the limitations of the device. Those limitations are by design because I would like a bigger screen, but putting a 17" screen on a handheld doesn't make it a handheld anymore. So my usecase might not fit with the device anymore. I do use it sometimes to play sports or casual games. But that's about it.
