I modelled and printed a custom mount for my portable monitor for my deck, it's surprisingly comfortable to hold

Not for low-vision people or older people who have issues with the smaller screen. Could be a solution if someone like that ended up with a Steam Deck and didn't realize they'd have an issue with the smaller screen, and maybe they just have a spare travel monitor lying around.

Also there's a contingent of people out there who just enjoy modifying stuff because they can. Don't knock it until you've tried it.

Yeah but at what point does it just become a pc with a controller...

That is... Literally how I would describe the steam deck, that's why I love it <3
