3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Is running windows os on these devices is a lot of resource overhead?

windows can be tuned to run fairly well, but we're talking lenovo here, and they do love their preinstalled crapware.

The bigger problem with Windows is that the Steamdeck has some great battery optimization settings that seem like they'd be a pain to implement.

These devices are honestly quite fast, the overhead is similar to the overhead on an entry level gaming PC (to be fair, that is still a substantial overhead, but people accept it)
