What about performance metrics overlay aka MangoHUD? Won't it flicker and have problems with deciding on which window to focus on?

> OS wide light/dark mode was a mistake. YES. No matter how well designed a GUI is, certain things like file browsers and text editors should always be light mode, and other things like media players, IDEs, and terminal/DOS prompt windows should always be dark mode.

Why the heck would I want to be blinded every time I open a folder or text file?

i personally like dark mode on everything as long as it is designed well... a lot less strain on the eyes.

nice, can't wait to see a quick menu button for discord for quick messaging and quick screenshot sending.

In discover overlay it's not showing me servers to choose... Can anyone help with this?

@@sethgardner could you potentially be able to select the separate window in the menu you'd usually go to in order to exit a game? I'm pretty sure at one point I've seen a place to swap between separate windows that I'm assuming it detects came from the same program.

@@zipzoom1926 if you have 50+ discord servers you're in it gives you a pop up message that you can't see in the handheld mode but if you open it up in desktop mode you can clear the message and it should persist the next time you open it in handheld mode.

your videos on steamdeck are pleasant to watch because it has been easy and we are certainly enthusiastic about the linux world and I say that these tips of yours are perfect in a little while I'm sure someone will simplify even more by simply making a script that just one click will solve these small steps.

Ah, thought I was the only one lol. Not only can I not see the mouse for discord, the Deck won’t force close the app and requires a restart every time, update on this will be very helpful from OP

Can this only be used on desktop mode on steam deck?

The only time he leaves Gaming Mode in this video is to install it and add it to Steam. Everything else is in Gaming Mode.

so i have tried to follow your guide. but even with my discord open and the active thing on my steam deck, if i have a game open as well, it still tries to activate things in the game instead of letting me use the discord, other than that it works fine
