[Flair] My post title
The following is a list of suggested flairs:
[Discussion] - General discussion.
[Help] - A request for help or support.
[News] - News about the deck.
[PSA] - Sharing important information.
[Game] - News / info about a game on the deck.
[Update] - An update to a previous post.

Some more Steam Deck specific flairs:
[Boot Screen] - Custom boot screens/videos.
[Selling] - If you are selling your deck.
These are not enforced, but they are encouraged.
Rules:
I pretty much never use them, don't have the right hand shape and grip for it.
I initially tried pressing the bit that's not flat against the back by squeezing it and it really wasn't comfortable for my hand, but pressing the bit that is flat against the back is way easier
I'll try this.
Yeah, I turn them off in a lot of games. Otherwise I accidentally hit them and trigger some weird effect.
I get a lot of joint pain from specific or repetitive movements (especially in my hands) and these are just slightly too stiff and in a hard enough to press place that using them for more than very occasional use will hurt. I bought some rubber things that make them a bit easier to press, but they still are difficult for me.
