    I have a Steam Deck OLED and my Freetube uses the whole screen. Freetube v0.23.1 beta and SteamOS version 3.6.20

    It might be the way you have Freetube installed. From Steam game mode, go to Freetube, then Properties, then Shortcut. This is what I have:

    Target:

    “/usr/bin/flatpak”

    Start In:

    /usr/bin

    Launch Options:

    run --branch=stable --arch=x86_64 --command=/app/bin/run.sh --file-forwarding io.freetubeapp.FreeTube @@u %u @@

    I am not using any specific compatibility mode.

    There is a problem though where the mouse pointer cannot select anything more than about halfway down the screen. To get around this, I have the controller config set as follows:

    • Right touchpad: mouse
    • L2 & R2: right and left mouse buttons
    • D-pad: arrow keys
    • Left joystick - left: shift+tab
    • Left joystick - right: tab
    • Y: on-screen keyboard
    • A: Enter

    This will let you scroll with the d-pad, tab around, use keyboard, and select things with Enter.

    I hope this helps.







  • I did for a while but they made it such a pain to use it that way, so I ditched it and went back to Joplin.

    For example, Standard notes was working fine, then one day an update broke my self-hosted setup. When I finally fixed it (it took days), I noticed the editors I used no longer worked either. I got tired of fixing and fighting to keep it working.

    Joplin’s editor sucks (on mac), but at least the app reliably stays working and syncing.
