Steamdeck compatibility could take a huge leap forward with ULWGL-launcher, a universal game compatibility tool and collaborative effort between Glorious Eggroll, Lutris, Bottles, and Heroic Launcher! (www.pcgamesn.com)

Even then, the shaders for steam deck wouldn't work on other devices with different GPU architecture. I think it might require the same CPU architure as well. But, I'm not confident on the second part.

I wasn't talking about other devices. Just the steam deck. If it's a game bought through steam you get the pre-cache files. If it's a game you're playing on the SD, but was purchased/obtained outside of steam you can still play it but you won't have the pre-cache files to use.
