I actually let my Ally go to get the Legion Go. I loved it but the sticks were angled to the left and the SD card reader wasn’t working. It’s nice to see though that they’re continuously doing support and improvements.

The ROG Ally is Still not running Linux by default

Yeah it can only get so good before Windows starts to show its ugly face. Steam Deck works so well because it runs games within it's own compositor with absolutely no bloat or distractions.

Honestly a positive for me . Xbox Gamepass is the main reason I have a handheld . It doesn’t work natively on Linux.

Yeah I’ve played some games on GamePass on my Deck via MS Edge and xcloud. It works pretty well for anything where input lag isn’t a factor, like turn-based games.

I tried Rocket League and Forza just for shits and giggles, and while it’s not unplayable, it’s also not responsive enough to be enjoyable
