I just plugged the steam deck in to a monitor and while I was transferring some roms and started to wonder if it would be feasible to use as a day to day computer while docked.

Apart from the obvious problem of launching it (though surely there are scripts for this) when connecting to an external display, desktop mode launches KDE which is an extremely capable desktop environment. What more would you get out of a desktop distro, and how useful would those things be compared to losing big picture mode on startup?
Other “more capable distros” let you install applications other than flatpak, and it don’t get wiped out with one update, it’s the only think differently i guess, but i use fedora and install mostly of my applications as flatpak anyway, so idk
