steamdeckhq.com
Valve has officially released the Windows drivers for the Steam Deck OLED, making Windows OS officially supported on the device!

To be clear, while the article says this is “official support”, this is only drivers provided by valve.

Per valve:

We are providing these resources as is and are unfortunately unable to offer ‘Windows on Deck’ support.

    I for one welcome the ability to:

    • play flash games,
    • Games without launchers or not on steam
    • Run vortex, wemod, obscure mod installers without winetricks that are more hassle than they’re worth (if they work at all)
    • Literally just not have to find workarounds for everything I want to do that isn’t through steam that adds another hour of research and installation to the process.

    You may now begin the downvotes. (Even if you’re wrong I respect your opinions)

      play flash games,

      I don’t think there’s currently any supported software running flash files that’s Windows exclusive, is there? Adobe ended support and the most mature solution is ruffle, which is open source and runs on Linux as well.

      Games without launchers or not on steam

      ??? When has this not been possible?
