So I’m not sure if this has been discussed before, but since I’m new to the steam deck (oled). I noticed when you are downloading games, the screen will stay on the same static image the whole time. now I know that OLED screen these days are more durable towards burn ins, however having no kind of screensaver or at least be able to download the games while the console is sleeping definitely doesn’t help the screen lol.

I might be wrong and there might be a setting, all i know so far is that i can just dim the brightness. but would be cool if there was some sort of setting to have a screensaver of some sort.

What do you think?

    I think it’s absolutely ridiculous to let the users figure out a way to
    a. download games without having the possibility to turn off the damn screen
    b. not implement a screen cleaning or saving feature for the OLED version

    It’s 2023 and the Switch did all of this out of the box (well almost). 🤷‍♂️🤣

    I’d say that’s a no go for devices like this!

      I plug it into my dock.

      It forces hdmi output even if my tv is off. So i started a bunch of downloads then just connected to the dock and walked away
