Mine has some windows time from testing someone's computer after reinstalling.

I think it's interesting most of your play time is on the Steam Deck, but you play a bunch of games on Linux. Are you just testing settings then?

I think it's a lot of the same game on both, but some I only played on the deck. Some I switched back to desktop for sections where inconsistent frame rate was wrecking me like GoW Valkyries. Dave the diver was entirely deck. Also have a laptop but vulkan support is incomplete on haswell so some games were launched and crashed if they didn't have opengl.
