The community name has been changed, but the c/steamdeck part cannot be changed without creating a new community.
In the previous discussion on whether to include Steam Machine/Steam Frame/Steam OS, the majority of the responses wanted to include the new hardware, at least for the time being.
Part of this decision is that, right now, the fediverse isn’t really large enough to support multiple hardware-specific Steam OS communities. However, if the community grows or it becomes apparent that the communities need to be separated, we can do that at a later time.
As always, feedback is encouraged and welcome.


It may just be my first foray into VR. Stoked. :D
I had an original oculus dev kit and thought it was cool back then. Frame is gonna be an instant buy for me and I’m beyond excited.
I was so excited for Oculus right up until it was bought by Facebook. I didn’t have the funds right away and had been waiting, but I immediately wrote it off the day that news broke.
Same! I’m planning to get one as close to launch as I can. I’ve been waiting on VR and this 100% seems like what I’ve been looking for. Super excited.
Same! I don’t have enough room or money to justify an Index, and I didn’t want to get anything oculus/meta. Enter Steam Frame 😎
