Install steps for Decky are exactly the same, except you paste curl -L https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/PluginLoader/raw/main/dist/install_prerelease.sh | sh into Konsole instead (note the "prerelease"). Further details are on the Decky Loader README if you need them.

1st Day impression with my 512 GB
It's an plugin for Steam OS Plugin Loader. Unfortunately it's not a user friendly install.

Question regarding emulation
For emulation that’s bad as you mostly need one CPU core crunching as fast as it can. Go here https://deckbrew.xyz and then download PowerTools. Turn off SMT. Et voila, non choppy emulation.

I made a plugin to suspend games and apps similar to how consoles do (Deck Suspender)
Discussions about the issue on Plugin Loader’s gitHub for anyone interested.

10+ hours _actual_ battery life in VNs & turn based games by using PowerTools and setting GPU FastPPT Power=0, which forces 400mhz CPU. Can get lower than 4w consumed(!). Visual Novels work perfectly since FPS doesn't matter for them.
Main question: can anyone else reproduce these results? You'll need https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/PluginLoader to use PowerTools

I'm working on a plugin to integrate TeamSpeak 3 into the quick access sidebar
Unfortunately there is no official API available. The way it is done as of today requires user to enable developer mode on their Deck. If you want to learn more, check out PluginLoader on GitHub.
