Can I pre-format an sd card and start loading it up?
Seems theres some work needed for it to work with btfs, perhaps someday. It seems it can work with btrfs, but there can be some issues. https://gitlab.com/popsulfr/steamos-btrfs

Can't launch proton games after installing BTRFS
I followed a guide to install BTRFS support and successfully converted my /home directory and SD card. However, I encountered an issue where all games using Proton stopped working. I attempted to resolve this problem by changing the Proton version (stable, experimental, GE) and reformatting the SD card to Ext4. Interestingly, native Linux games are functioning correctly. Logs aren't really helpful:

I formatted a sd card to btrfs but now it work on my steamdeck
did you properly set up the btrfs script on the Deck in order to do this or did you just reformat it as btrfs without any preparation?
- Anyone try this to convert to Btrfs file system? Apparently better load times and other benefits

trying to format ssd to btrfs
i use btrfs for my steam deck windows dualboot and it works great for storage sharing. I already ran this script to convert the sd card a while ago and it worked perfect, but now I want to do it again and this time make use of the script's feature to have a btrfs /home so i can access the ssd's storage on windows. however, when I run the script again, it opens a window asking "select the rootfs devices to install into" and a bunch of long file directories i don't understand. have i just missed the boat for a btrfs ssd, and i shouldve done it at first setup?

How to go about backing up Flatpak apps and data?
Ahh, that's a huge peace of mind! Which method of setting up btrfs would you recommend? I found the old btrfsdeck repo, which pointed to this new one.

Things to setup on a new Steam Deck?
Btrfs is a filesystem which supports copy on write and filesystem-level compression, both of which combining to potentially very large storage space savings. If you're interested, there's a program which can convert the Deck's /home partition to btrfs here: https://gitlab.com/popsulfr/steamos-btrfs

A New Era for Mixed Reality
The "Metaverse" is a complete joke, and among gamers, Valve has a way better reputation than Meta. Why would they want to dilute that brand?
They already have their own platform (Steam), OS (SteamOS), VR headset (Index), their own Windows translation layer (Proton, https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton), their own partnership with cloud gaming (Steam Cloud Play using GeForce Now , https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/cloudgaming), etc.
IMO: As someone with thousands of games on Steam, there's no way in hell I'd want that linked to Facebook. I think they eventually removed the requirement to have a FB account to use a Quest, but they still require a Meta account. Yuck.
This reeks of Facebook recognizing the Metaverse as the failure that it was and opening it up because it's no longer relevant...

NTFS messes up
Did you mount it with the correct flags?

How do I use multiple hard drives on Kubuntu for steam?
there is a hack to try and use your existing windows game install from an NTFS drive, but i don't recommend it as steam will try to save file names that are not allowed on NTFS...plus ext4 is faster.

Game crashes within 10 seconds of launching unless I reinstall from scratch
From a quick search, here's what I found. It looks like you're encountering some common issues that can occur with games running on Linux through Proton, especially with the recent updates to games like Satisfactory that might affect compatibility. The log entries you're seeing related to D3DCompile2 failing to compile shader and the issues with Ternary operator and LinearToSrgbBranching not being defined, suggest that there's a problem with shader compilation. This can often be related to the version of Proton or the graphics drivers you are using. Some users have reported that the game does launch with the -vulkan option but with graphical glitches and lower performance, which indicates that the Vulkan renderer is working but possibly not optimally on your setup. From the discussions in the community, users have suggested ensuring that the latest drivers for your graphics card are installed and, if using an Intel GPU, that the Mesa drivers are up to date since Intel XeSS references were found in the logs. If you're using NVIDIA graphics, make sure you have the latest drivers and possibly set the PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 %command% to enable DLSS if you're under Vulkan. If you're using an Optimus laptop with both Intel and NVIDIA GPUs, make sure your Optimus setup is correctly configured. Some users have found success by specifying DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAMES=GeForce to force the game to use the NVIDIA GPU. It's also worth noting that if you're encountering issues with DirectX 11, you might want to try forcing the game to use DirectX 10 if possible or look into DXVK configurations that could resolve compatibility issues. Lastly, if none of these solutions work, you could try running a trace with apitrace to gather more detailed logs that might point to the specific issue. If you're still stuck, it would be a good idea to report the issue to the Proton GitHub page or seek further assistance in the game's community forums where others might have encountered and solved similar issues. For more information and to find others who might have resolved similar issues, check out the community discussions on GitHub, Steam Community, and the DXVK GitHub page.
