I’ve been on the fence for a while thinking about getting myself a steam deck. I got a great gaming computer and I’m wondering if it can possible accompany it in some way, or is it just the excitement of getting new tech kicking in.

What do you do with your steam deck? What makes you glad that you got it?

Maybe this is a little weird but I actually use mine the most at the gym while on the treadmill and stair machine. It's helped me stay motivated to keep going back semi-regularly and luckily over the last year I've lost most of the weight I gained during the pandemic. I've also worked through a lot of games that have been sitting untouched in my library, especially those smaller indie games that run well on the Deck.

Apart from that I also bring it to family gatherings since it's convenient for local multiplayer games like Jackbox.

That sounds like a great solution!
