steamos-btrfs VS steam-deck-tools

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

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:

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?

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?

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.

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

I use Steam Deck tools for windows for all my deck buttons and shortcuts https://github.com/ayufan/steam-deck-tools

It's friendlier than it looks! First download the latest Steam Deck Tools release from GitHubsteam deck tools, then install RTSSrtss so the overlay and quick menus work, and optionally follow thisvrr guide to get VRR working. Make sure they're all set to run on startup and you should be good to go. The options all live in the task bar, and you can easily toggle between desktop/controller mode and different fan profiles, refresh rates, etc. It takes some fiddling around to get perfect but it has most, if not all, of the functionality of the native OS

Are you sure you are actually using Windows on the deck? Because except for getting the controller working in 3rd party launchers (which needs this single tool: https://github.com/ayufan/steam-deck-tools) - there were absolutely NO errors / hurdles at all. Everything just works as expected.

I prefer Steam Deck Tools for Windows https://github.com/ayufan/steam-deck-tools this is free, and adds pretty much full Stream Deck functionality to Windows. Steam Deck shortcuts for bringing up the windows keyboard, closing apps, alt tabbing, bringing up an overlay, using the overlay to choose frame rate and scaling options, etc, etc.

Steam Deck Tools I launch Diablo hold start and swaps to controller mode.

Install https://github.com/ayufan/steam-deck-tools This gives you control of fans, power limits, controller/mouse mode, etc. Its an all in 1 tool

And I use Steam Deck Tools for Windows for everything else and it works great https://github.com/ayufan/steam-deck-tools
