big update

This is an update.

:3

truly the update of all time

please add big yacht mode

so productive.

cheers

continue to break the UI and not fix any of the other bugs ur team has created with these disgusting changes

For months, the background recording feature on Steam Deck has been fundamentally broken for a significant number of users, including myself. A primary reason I invested in this device was for its promised, console-like convenience features, with seamless background recording being a key selling point.

It is incredibly frustrating to see this core feature remain in a non-functional state for so long without any official acknowledgement or a clear timeline for a fix from Valve. The community has been left to scour forums and devise its own bizarre workarounds (like toggling performance overlays) for a problem that should not exist in the first place.

This lack of communication and resolution is deeply disappointing. It undermines the trust I had in the platform and makes me question the commitment to polishing the user experience post-launch. I am posting this not just to report a bug, but to express my profound dissatisfaction as a customer. Please, provide users with a status update and dedicate the resources necessary to fix this critical feature.

I've been planning on buying a Deck for xmas but if the Deck is in the typical Valve "screw you, paying customer" limbo like the Steam client itself I'll give it a miss and check out a competitor product.
Thanks for the heads-up.

I wish me the sorters to be able to sort in both ascending and descending order.

i'll give TF2 tier update

Bigger update than Windows feature update

Thank you.

You broke the in-game overlay with the last update!
The overlays don't remember their position anymore
