      SteamOS is immutable, so you can’t install system-wide apps on there, only flatpaks, appimages etc.

        You can install system wide apps by turning off immutabe mode and configurating something. I might be talking out my ass though cause I have done this but I don’t remember if it persisted across updates.

          You can for sure! It’s just I wouldn’t go around recommending that to just any person because they then might get a little crazy with the freedom, brick their Steam deck install, and then try to say that the Deck is a POS.

          Bad word of mouth is always a lot more damaging than spreading the good word that it’s a solid system.
