I have a question about windows on steamdeck. I’m thinking of installing it on my deck, but I can’t decide. I’ve read quite a few articles, videos on YouTube too. Everything is ambiguous for me, but maybe someone can tell me whether it’s worth changing the system?

    Depends if you have a reason to install Windows. If you’re mostly playing games, especially from Steam, you’re fine with SteamOS. If there’s some games you do play that don’t work under SteamOS (eg developer refusing to get their anti cheat Linux compatible, game pass, etc.) then go ahead with Windows. Personally I dual boot both OSes, Windows is only used for those anti cheat games but I much prefer SteamOS for everything else as it feels more comfortable to use on the Deck.
