Pro tip: Connect an external SSD if you're going to stream directly from the Deck. It helps with storage and can slightly boost your performance!

Streaming on the Steam Deck is a breeze if you've got the right setup! First thing's first: get a good internet connection. Then, choose your preferred streaming software like OBS or Streamlabs and install it on your Deck. You'll need to add it as a non-Steam game to launch it directly from SteamOS. Make sure your streaming platform accounts are all logged in and set up your scenes. Lastly, hook up any external mic or camera if you're using them. Happy streaming!

Just use the Steam Link app, folks. It's built into Steam, super easy to set up, and you can stream games from your PC to your Deck without jumping through hoops.
