This is primarily a podcast, but there is a short article with it. Also worth noting, this podcast came out before the Steam Deck OLED was announced, although it's possible the participants knew of its existence considering they had an early review unit.

“Handheld gaming is the future!”

Meanwhile Nintendo alone has already sold 132 million Switches in the past. Not to mention every other handheld that’s sold like gangbusters in the past.

What a stupid ass story

It's funny that people are arguing against you when the DS, Switch, and Gameboy/GBC are the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th top selling gaming consoles of all time. Like yeah, they're all Nintendo consoles, but if other companies put in the same effort and marketing, they'd likely have similar results.

Yeah, sometime people just want to be contrarian on the internet. Handheld gaming has been a massive success over the years
