Chrono Trigger (SNES)

A friend of mine switched to windows because he plays a particular popular online fps that has windows dependent DRM, and he's happy with that but it's also the only game he plays.

Setting up dual boot isn't difficult, though, you can do both if there is a particular reason you need windows. I think there is no benefit to switching to windows unless you have a specific need for it that steamos can't accommodate (cod, destiny, etc.)

I retired from competitive shooters long ago and use steamos exclusively on my deck and have not had many issues that would be resolved by using Windows instead.

Not directly relevant but if you have the 64gb deck and a big SD card: you can symlink the directory that houses all the proton versions and shader catches to the SD card.

That was pretty much the first thing I did after I got my deck, as a stopgap before I could upgrade the SSD but it's been working well enough I never got around to swapping out the SSD after, what, almost two years?

I assume you're asking because you're trying to get away from corporate/proprietary solutions, but in case you're not: kindle has web reader and an Android app and lets you upload epubs sourced outside of the Kindle ecosystem.

Kirby's Dream Land (the original, and still the best)

I didn't do any fancy mounting, as far as I can remember. I think it really was just a matter of copying the directories to my SD card and replacing the directories on the deck with links to the ones I copied to the card.

I'll take a look at what I did the next time I get the deck out and let you know
