For what it's worth, Valve has written a steam input driver for joy-cons! You can connect them over Bluetooth! ...but they're still joy-cons, so their wireless range is really bad. You basically need direct line of sight.

I have an older switch vulnerable to fusee-gelee, so I've been using yuzu's tutorial for how to legally rip my purchased games from it.

I only use my Switch now for 1) Nintendo exclusives, that 2) I've already purchased, and 3) don't run well on Yuzu. So... Super Beat Sports, mostly. (Harmonix please make a PC port!)

yep! remembers up to two bluetooth connections and two usb dongles. turn it on while holding:

  • A to boot in usb mode
  • B to boot in bluetooth mode
  • X to connect a new dongle
  • Y to connect a new bluetooth profile
  • Start to use the previous dongle
  • Select to use the previous bluetooth profile

honestly the steam controller's killer feature for me isn't even the touchpads -- it's the multiple-profile support. "oh, you want to connect to your PC for a bit, then reconnect to your console later? sure, just hold select during startup, I'll remember your last 2 bluetooth connections."

Can't you basically do this already by installing SteamOS on a normal PC?

Honestly, I've stuck around for NodeCore. It's not like Minecraft at all, it's something totally new. It's very minimalist at the moment but you might find that makes it easier to pick up.

if you like the in-world smelting system, try NodeCore! It's open source, low system requirements, and is very "back to basics".

Prism is great, it's in the Flatpak store so you can easily install it with Discover on Steam Deck; add a controller mod like MidnightControls or Controllable and you're golden

Basically, repeat the experiment under a wide range of conditions, and show that the conditions for success, if any, are far beyond the original claim. I always loved the 'mythbusters' approach: if one bible can't stop a bullet, how about two bibles? ten? where is the cutoff between true and false?

where do you find good sources to follow, then?
