As Lemmy doesn't have flairs yet, you can use these prefixes to indicate what type of post you have made, eg:
[Flair] My post title
The following is a list of suggested flairs:
[Discussion] - General discussion.
[Help] - A request for help or support.
[News] - News about the deck.
[PSA] - Sharing important information.
[Game] - News / info about a game on the deck.
[Update] - An update to a previous post.
[Meta] - Discussion about this community.
Some more Steam Deck specific flairs:
[Boot Screen] - Custom boot screens/videos.
[Selling] - If you are selling your deck.
These are not enforced, but they are encouraged.
Rules:
Do you really need a protective case? I don't ever use my Steam Deck outside. The most dangerous place I used it was with hard flooring at an airport. If I were to drop it, it'd get scuffed at most and already has a screen protector.
I would like to be able to carry my Deck in a backpack full of other things, including on long journeys, hikes, flights and such, without it taking up too much space (as in the factory case) or the risk of it being scratched/damaged by impact from other objects. It may well be robust enough to withstand being jarred against other objects, though it’s better to be safe than sorry.
