    In about two years there’s going to be a workable way to play steam games on your phone.

    Sad thing I don’t think anyone running graphene or any privacy phones will be able to use it.

    I only got old snapdragons 865, 845 and they perform better than a much newer pixel and it seems like anything worth while you need at least a snapdragon gen 2.

      I think gamenative may hit your expectations, it’s surprisingly smooth. Once you’re signed in, your library comes up, and it shows you what games should be compatible (which is most of them, but doesn’t factor in performance). There are community reported configs that work, so games will automatically default to proton versions/etc that are known to work.

      Don’t you count the current solutions as workable? People have been playing Steam games on their phones since about the Steam Frame reveal.

        Well before the steam frame, people where playing skyrim at like 15fps on game native like Two years ago. And not really playable there’s a lot of toggling and fiddling.

        I imagine it much more streamlined like playing on the deck. Where the average person that doesn’t know what Linux is will be using it.
