In other words, simply changing SSD doesn't void warranty, but damaging the Steam Deck in the process of doing so does.

Just as far fetched, yes.

For games that doesn't support Steam Cloud for saves etc., or in general moving files over to the Steam Deck from your PC, I highly recommend setting up Syncthing.

It's available on the Discover store in desktop mode and can be set up to run as a service to ensure that it's always running on Steam Deck, if you're so inclined. There's a myriad of guides out there if you search around, should you need help setting it up.

OVPN still seems to support port forwarding, though it's worth pointing out they were recently acquired by Pango.

• Shakedown: Hawaii - 80% off at 3,99€ - Think GTA for the 16-bit era.
• 2Dark - 90% off at 2,49€ - Think Alone in the Dark but top-down and in retro/voxel style, from the original creator of Alone in the Dark.
• UnderRail - 60% off at 5,67€ - Hidden or not, this one can't be recommended enough to fans of the original Fallout (1 & 2, isometric) games.
• Space Haven - 60% off at 8,79€ - In-depth colony/spaceship building & management sim with cozy graphics.
• Crystal Caves HD - 60% off at 2,63€ - A true testament to how to faithfully bring an old platformer into HD, while also innovating on the original. Also contains a lot of hidden gems.
• Supraland Complete Edition - 54% off at 15,71€ - First-Person-Metroidvania in a literal sandbox, lots of freedom, lots of puzzles and exploring. Contains the DLC. Get this to gear up for the eventual release of the sequel Supraworld. The standalone Supraland Six Inches Under is also worth getting, but is "only" at 45% off, which is still great.

Here's an example of what I think we'll be seeing more of: A user getting called out and named for frequently downvoting: https://kbin.social/m/wholesome/t/80838/To-the-one-guy-who-keeps-downvoting-m-wholesome-threads

Don't think this is the last we'll see of this, and I think it definitely has the potential to impact peoples participation in the long run, with people self-censoring themselves out of fear of being called out for voting wrong.
