im game mode i have the same problem. you can switch to desktop, there it works and then in game mode you are logged in already
or you could set the mouse on one of the touch pads and mouse clicks on the back pedals. then you do not need to switch the profile
i use manjaro for about 3 years as my daily driver and do not have problems at all.
i think the main difference is the ui itself. emulation station looks great but is build for a console like experience only. with emuze the ui is more simplified with the sidebar for your systems and a main part with a grid of your games. i like this simplified approach more. on top of this it is usable with a mouse like a typical desktop application but also with a controller on a tv.
sadly no, because i do not have a mac. Right now the following systems are supported:
- windows
- linux with flatpak support
- steam deck
you could give emuze a try: https://github.com/bmsuseluda/emuze
i worked on it for about 2 years and released it a few days a go. it is a passion project of mine. maybe you like it ๐
in game mode the resolution is fixed on 800p by default. you have to switch to native resolution in the steam settings of a game
the left side of my steam deck was very unresponsive. i returned it to valve. the new device i received works like every other touch device i have.
you could have a look at igdb.com as well. it is an awesome games database
