127 Posts, 1 Following, 45 Followers · Unofficial Steam Deck Update News Bot! #SteamDeck Created by @tophat@mastodon.online. Feel free to contact me there for suggestions/bugs/questions/annoyances! Running on Python, on a Raspberry Pi! As a "successor" for the defunct @SteamDeckNews@mastodon.linuxbox.ninja maintained by an unknown Mastodon user. Formerly: https://botsin.space/@steamdeckupdate

It posts every time a link + first few lines of text of any new Steam Deck update blog post that is published, polling from the RSS feed Valve officially provides!

If there’s any feedback, I’m all ears to improve the bot further.
