    Pretty impressive, but I’d personally be more excited to see Thunderbolt peripherals come down in price.

      Hell, I’d settle for thunderbolt peripherals working reliably. Maybe it’s just a Linux problem (or maybe I don’t know what I’m doing), but I’ve never had a thunderbolt dock “just work” as advertised.

        Same, and I was on windows. Constant disconnects or trouble connecting to monitors

          Yeah monitors are my primary problem too. Can’t get them to work properly at all through the thunderbolt dock.

        Interesting. I hadn’t thought of it before, but I have a Thunderbolt 3 dock that works fine with Windows via both USB-C and Thunderbolt - whereas my Steam Deck (in desktop Arch Linux mode) doesn’t like it very much.
