MODERATORS
For games that doesn't support Steam Cloud for saves etc., or in general moving files over to the Steam Deck from your PC, I highly recommend setting up Syncthing.
It's available on the Discover store in desktop mode and can be set up to run as a service to ensure that it's always running on Steam Deck, if you're so inclined. There's a myriad of guides out there if you search around, should you need help setting it up.
@Zebrazilla I see. But won't Syncthing sync stuff to it's folder first, then sync it over? At least this was it's behavior when I tried it.
That looks like a nice, useful tool, thanks for sharing! Could it be used in practice to transfer large amounts of data remotely between people, if they just setup a shared folder, or is it just meant for small files or LAN? Big file transfer is always an issue when you need it...
