"Out of the box, the Steam Deck’s screen will default to portrait."

So does the legion go. I don't understand why there isn't something built in to fedora to prevent this but I've never been able to find a setting for it.

You probably won’t it’s just because the resolution is 720x1280 instead of the normal 1280x720 so it just assumes that is the correct orientation for the screen but it’s because screen manufacturers don’t make screens landscape this size due to the market being small as they are normally used for tablets

Edit: fun fact the vita and switch are also both like this not sure about the Wii u

Thank you for the explanation. It switches sometimes by accident and I didn't know that.

Try wdisplay (on wayland), or xrandr (on xorg)

Thank you for the suggestions. I'll check it out.
