I’ve gone as far as to “downgrade” my desktop computer to a combination of MacBook Pro + Steam Deck. The MacBook is heaps faster for any workload other than gaming, so now my most powerful computer fits in my backpack. The Steam deck is such a joy to play with, and thanks to the microSD slot I don’t have to worry about disk space requirements anymore. Yes, it’s not as fast in terms of raw performance, but I don’t care. I can play now on my bed, sofa, or garden. If it doesn’t run on the deck, I don’t care for it. I already have way too many games I haven’t finished.

I’d say I’m in a similar situation but my desktop was hardly more powerful than the steam deck 😂
Now my desktop is just a general use computer.
