Clover vs rEFInd: Which is the better choice for dual-booting the SteamDeck?
Additionally, I found another script by jlobue10 called SteamDeck_rEFInd, which appears to be the foundation for ryanrudolph's rEFInd script. You can find it here.

Steam Deck Windows Dual Boot
Genuine question... what do you expect from the native dual boot solution (coming soonTM ) that's not already possible by shrinking the /home partition and installing whatever other OS in that free space? Combine that with rEFInd and you can have a quality dual boot setup already. I've made it extremely easy to install and customize rEFInd as well. Waiting for the native solution coming who knows when just doesn't make sense to me. I don't see it being any better than what's currently possible.

What’s the best way to install App Man, direct or via distrobox?
You may also find useful this project. It's a preconfigured Clover that can automatically reinstall itself after system upgrades. It automatically detects different OS on different drives and some OS are already preconfigured with beautiful icons. Works flawlessly for me, tested with Ventoy USB drive with multiple images and with Tails (Deck is an amazing device for anonymous Internet access!) on SDCard. The only things I adjusted were menu timeout and theme. I'm not sure if it's better or worse compared to refind.

10 Enterprise LTSC 2021 Touch keyboard broken
I use SteamDeck-Clover-dualboot to manage a dual boot. Updates to either SteamOS or Windows will often mess with the boot priority, so installing this script on the SteamOS side tends to help. When one OS “takes over,” manually booting into SteamOS fixes it right up.
- updated the Clover script. bugfix, added several Linux distros and added Clover Toolbox - a simple GUI / menu to toggle settings
