Steam Deck got so much right, straight out of the gate. The suspend-resume is nothing short of amazing. The UI is 100% muscle, 0% fat.

IMO, starting with Windows as a base is an automatic setback. There's a strong chance that it'll interrupt your game to ask you if you want to set Edge to be your default browser or some stupid shit.

I get this place is very pro-Linux, but come on. 30+ years of using Windows here, it's never done anything like that.

Windows continuously harasses me to upgrade to windows 11 with full screen nags (having to find the little "go away" button, why there's not a single "no fuck off forever" button isn't shown is beyond me)

I can definitely understand the frustration at windows given how it chooses to act sometimes

Disable TPM in your BIOS. Windows 11 will suddenly be “unsupported” and won’t pester you to upgrade.
