If you already subscribe to claude and have claude code you can ask claude how you can install it on your steamdeck. it is pretty easy. Once claude is on your steamdeck it can help you clean up duplicate files and unused downloads. It can also help you fix and install mods and decomps. I had claude fix all 3 resident evil Re enhanced mods for me yesterday. I had tried everything and gave up but the AI was able to get everything sorted and free about 60GB of space on my HDD. I know everyone hates AI but I just wanted to let you all know it can be used on the deck to fix things for you. GLHF

I recently came across a windows based project on Reddit that could use multiple internet connections together and combine their speeds for downloads. I was surprised to see that something like this was even possible, so I tried it out and it worked pretty well.

I sent it to a friend who made a NixOS linux port for his own use. That got me thinking that something like this could be insanely useful on the deck, so I started working on a decky loader plugin for it.

The plugin lets you combine multiple network connections, such as wifi, dock/hub ethernet and usb tethering, and combines the speeds on steam game downloads and updates.

for my own use case. I combined my home wifi with usb tethering from my phone's 5g mobile data and got steam download speeds of over 450mbps on the Deck. (my home broadband is on a 200 meg plan)

It's still an early release, so feedback and testing would be really appreciated. please let me know your experience and if you have any suggestions for new features or bug fixes :3
