I am someone who mods every console that I have. I even mod lemmy.world/c/linuxcracksupport here. But fiddling with the Deck can be very tedious and tiring. It’s like modding a game - you’ll spend hours getting it right, only for your will to play the game be gone.
I’ve even taken to not doing beta updates anymore on the Deck because the uncertainy that they cause just gets into my playtime. It somewhat ruins the concept of the Deck, which is ‘pick up for a few minutes and play’ in my mind.
