A particularly fun bit:

So then, how about Fortnite on Linux / Steam Deck? Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney said when it hits "tens of millions of users" that it "would actually make sense to support it". We must be pretty close by now right? Why ignore a platform that's sold multiple millions, and is clearly just continuing to fly off the shelves?

If a vendor strangely insist on not working on a new product, it's lying.

In this case it's obvious, considering we already got 2 minor revisions of steamdeck HW.

What are the two revisions? I know of the OLED version but what's the second?

[–] amelore@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think they swapped out thumb sticks and fans at some point before OLED? It wasn't a major thing.

[–] deafboy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Wasn't the new motherboard released even before the OLED?
