I’m on the opposite side of the coin, had a PC Gamer my whole teenage days/adulthood. But I never had a console until I bought a PSP some years ago, a Switch two years ago, and this year I traded my switch for the steam deck. I just love it is easy to just install and play stuff without any headaches. The steam deck offers less of this experience, but compared to a usual PC Gamer, still way more easy than playing on a normal PC.

But if you want help with technical stuff, you can always ask for help here, I think you know what proton and wine is by now

Verified means it will perform well with the default settings, so you shouldn’t change it
