Gnome developer proposes removing the X11 session
Which X clients are these? You didn't name any so let's just look at some of the popular and recent flathub apps: https://flathub.org/
I see a lot of games, chat apps, text editors, photo apps, office apps. These all will work fine in XWayland and XQuartz. But also, it's relatively easy to get them running on Wayland natively.

Are there any major sacrifices you make to play on Linux over Windows?
If you're worried about the potential of breaking things, I'd pick the Fedora Kinoite distro. Up to date gaming support, stable and extremely difficult to break. Install apps from Flathub using the built-in Discover software store and go nuts.

Things to setup on a new Steam Deck?
It also allows you to install Boxtron, Luxtorpeda, and Roberta for some old school games, and then choose them in the launch options for Steam just as if they were Proton versions.

Mixed Mode Media Mounting (Steam Deck/Arch Linux) DoxBox X
Boxtron is tool for automatically converting DOS games on Steam from using "old Windows version of DOSBox via Proton/Wine" to native Linux DOSBox - I specifically implemented there conversion of case sensitivity in .cue but also automatic rewriting of paths (because some game developers publish games on Steam without testing them at all). Right now it does not work unfortunately :( - when it'll be fixed I will post the update on this sub and /r/linux_gaming (and others as well probably).

Help please! How do I start DOSBox-X (or Staging) with a specific conf file in Steam on Linux/SteamOS?
Yeah, that's the annoyance of using flatpak unfortunately :( The version of Boxtron from flatpak store is designed to work with Steam installed via flatpak - which is not the case on SteamOS. I created a bug report for myself to fix it: https://github.com/dreamer/boxtron/issues/53 - you can follow the progress there.
- My haul from the Autumn sale. Not bad for under $40
- Does this guarantee a true offline experience with no further logins required for single player games though? Like switch, ps5, Xbox? The deck is a portable system, so if internet is still required then the offline update didn’t truly fix the main problem. Does anyone have any information on this?

I'm guessing there's ways around this?
For DOS games on Steam, there's also a Proton alternative called Boxtron that is basically DOSBox packaged to work as a Steam Play compatibility tool.
What are some alternatives?
vinegar - An open-source, minimal, configurable, fast bootstrapper for running Roblox on Linux.
proton-ge-custom - Compatibility tool for Steam Play based on Wine and additional components
appstream-glib - This library provides objects and helper methods to help reading and writing AppStream metadata.
dosbox-staging - DOSBox Staging is a modern continuation of DOSBox with advanced features and current development practices.
