SD card formatting stuck at "TESTING"
It was stuck on "Testing" for 10+ minutes so I decided to restart the Deck but it hasn't fixed it. It's only a 16Gb card so it shouldn't be taking this long.

You can try to format it with KDE Partition Manager in Desktop Mode.
Something might be wrong with the card or with the way the Deck interfaces with it.
If you want to use it with Game Mode, you should add an Ext4 partition, Windows is unable to read this format.

I kinda just waited it out and it worked. Weirdly enough my 256Gb one was faster so idk.
