The opening of the article gets it wrong but is so close to realizing it.

I stopped buying most games for my Nintendo Switch the day I bought a Steam Deck.

I did not.

My Switch has been a Mario and Zelda machine ever since.

That’s why I did not. Switch has the exclusive.

It’s simple: the Steam Deck took the Switch’s best trick — pick-up-and-play portability

That’s a great feature, but the best is the games.

That was my first thought too.

Although it’s also possible some edgy teen made a comment online from a Chicago School computer. And by comment I mean threat worth investigating.

This doesn’t seem like your typical episode. This seems like more of an EXTRA episode, but I suppose Everyone Loves Hypnotoad.

That won’t happen. As Twitter dies those users have to go somewhere. While Reddit isn’t a direct competitor as a service, it is in terms of time/eyeballs.

Ideally folks would move to Mastodon/Lemmy/etc, but that’s a different problem.
