I'm so happy Valve pushed the Steam deck the way they did. Didn't expect many games, let alone, Helldivers 2 to run on Linux but it runs first try. No tinkering, nothing.
I've been playing it by streaming from my home PC using moonlight. runs well and the battery lasts a long time. still have the issue of trying to play helldivers with controller, but it's better. and theoretically since it's not doing the rendering you can hook up an external monitor plus m+k and it'll still run well
Moonlight on the deck, sunshine on the PC, tailscale for gloud gaming. Tailscale released a bash script for make the deck install very easy.
I did it the other day for be able to enjoy HFW when not at home and it works much better that Steamlink.
