    • I haven’t modified the behavior of the controllers at all; that much is just decorative. Same for the dock. You can use this as a “normal” switch and everything works :)

      • edit: you can also use some third-party laptop docks! but not all of them. I think the switch is using some non-standard protocol. Some docks advertise themselves as “switch compatible”. However, when you are using a homebrew os (linux or android), then it will work with any dock.
    • I have a steam deck as well, and I use both. A modded switch (or any switch, tbh) has very limited system specs. x86 emulation is possible, but only for games that don’t use much cpu or ram. Steam and Proton are basically unusable. This is for emulation and low-spec indie games.

    • The trailhead begins at https://switch.hacks.guide/. I recommend a 512 GB microsd, with 128 GB set aside for ubuntu and 64 GB for android. Happy hacking :)
