Took my #SteamDeck to relatives barbecue and multiplayer was a mess
-Bluetooth controllers pairing was like trying to perform surgery with a spoon, so janky
-Steam OS crashed twice and froze on boot screen
-On Lego Party controllers were disconnecting non stop, unplayable
-On Runbow a player was detected as 2 simultaneous players
-On SpeedRunners controllers stopped working midgame intermittently
-Mario Kart RR buttons did not correspond actions
-Mario Kart 8D controllers unplugged midgame

We were very close to the Deck and controllers full charge, emulators fully setup for controllers multiplayer. Never again, we end up playing Switch and gave my Deck to my niece to watch Bluey. Next time I'll bring a USB hub to play with long cables connected to controllers like old consoles.

@migtorr@mastodon.org.uk Try to use dongle if possible, Bluetooth can be a mess for multiple controllers
