Well, I’ve never owned a Steamdeck, so I guess ignorance is bliss in this case; I don’t know what I’m missing. I really try to find games that work best with a controller to play on my Ally. There are plenty of games that require a keyboard and mouse, and I’ll either use my desktop or dock my Ally, but again, I got it for the controller games.

ROG Ally owner here - I come in peace. I know many ROG Ally users in r/rogally were reporting they purchased a Sabrent SSD to throw in their Allies (is that the plural?) and I hadn’t seen any reports of issues there, for what it’s worth.

I don’t think the size of Reddit was, itself, responsible for the deterioration, but it did attract bad actors and those not acting in good faith – the bots, reposters, karma whores, etc. It’s an unfortunate side effect that’s hard to guard against when these actors see a huge platform and an opportunity to take advantage and manipulate it.
