We asked our readers what they think of Windows 11's forced Microsoft account requirement, and the answer is clear. Too bad it's not on the official list of improvements coming to the OS in 2026.
Monitor snapping issues (program opens on the wrong monitor and figuring out how to force it somewhere else), VPN program not working because it’s an immutable distro, Stream deck unexpected behaviour (What functions can it use, sometimes it disconnected on a different usb hub) etc.
Also some incompatibilities, can’t use fusion 360 (didn’t work at all last time i tried it)
I have found Proton VPN works for me none of the others I’ve tried seem to function. I’m using it on a my livingroom pc so I don’t have any input on the steam deck specific issues, in fact I prefer Steam OS and I wish there was an official desktop release already.

There are a few others but those come to mind.

I use windscribe. Happy so far, and direct connection works well enough. Also stReam deck (Elgato). It works pretty well on my Legion go too.
