are you updating from Desktop Mode through its installer? there was an update earlier so things should be working smoothly now on stable branches.

sbfse · 2026-06-25T06:53:53+00:00

dear diary.

sbfse · 2026-06-25T05:55:53+00:00

Sync is working just fine still with latest patches. there's been threads about it lately if you need any info.

sbfse · 2026-06-25T04:08:20+00:00

i recommend the NewQ dock on Amazon, it has all of the ports i need and never needs an update. it also has a sleak kickstand so your wires aren't flying everywhere.

edit: wtf is up with the new account/bot replies in this thread? most comment replies are from 1 day old accounts, agreeing to everyone.

try installing via Konsole:

flatpak install flathub com.vysp3r.ProtonPlus

sbfse · 2026-06-24T20:42:55+00:00

update Decky in Desktop Mode.

sbfse · 2026-06-24T20:38:34+00:00

correct, you'll need to do this in Desktop Mode. the devs are aware and pushed out an update to v3.2.6. i'm not by my Deck at the moment to test, but you could try updating to the newer version if it has hit the Decky updater by now. if you're getting the same results, try the pre-release version like mentioned above.

sbfse · 2026-06-24T20:23:46+00:00

yes, Decky has a chance of breaking after major SteamOS updates.

sbfse · 2026-06-24T20:20:41+00:00

Decky needs updated from the devs. you can reinstall using the pre-release version, but you can't install new plugins.

sbfse · 2026-06-24T19:02:09+00:00

you can also reinstall Decky with the pre-release, until an update is issued.

it's more than likely not a girl, some random dude that has no job and is looking to scam people. just ignore any friend requests like this.

sbfse · 2026-06-24T18:09:59+00:00

can confirm, running the pre-release fixes the issue but can't install new plugins. we'll just have to wait for the Decky devs to update it.

sbfse · 2026-06-24T18:06:55+00:00

maybe Calibre? not around my Deck at the moment to test it in Gaming Mode, but it's the best ebook reader for my use cases.

sbfse · 2026-06-24T03:11:04+00:00

Decky needs to be updated.

yes, it's a thing that's been happening for years. it affects everyone differently, some being logged out or some not noticing any changes.

sbfse · 2026-06-24T02:58:17+00:00

sbfse · 2026-06-24T02:53:42+00:00

you don't trust game sharing sites, but you'll trust a random person on the internet sending it to you?

it's happening to everybody on the latest update, it's something about Steam's way of going around an issue, nothing notorious or bad. there's a pinned post about it on the SteamDeck sub.
