Transferring a game from your computer to your Steam Deck
Hello
I feel like downloading a game on your Steam Deck already present on your computer is a bit boring, specially for person with bad internet connection just like me. Also with the different formatting type of the micro sd (ext4) it give enough inconvenience to the user with less knowledge in technology that need to figure out how to make their pc read their sd card.
So why not adding a feature that let you transfer a game, or simply a file, from your computer to your Steam Deck easily via a LAN or Bluetooth connection, a bit like Air Droop from Mac to IPhone. That would add so much convenience to the overall experience of the Steam Deck !
Thank for your time

You can use Warpinator (or sshfs in terminal) to setup file sharing on your Deck, but I wouldn't use it for games unless you're running Linux (which I can tell you're not).
I don't know if Proton sets up the game files a bit differently or if there's an issue going from ntfs to ext4, but Proton is gonna run into issues sooner or later.
