How to Install a Web Browser on Steam Deck
To install a web browser on your Steam Deck, you'll need to switch to Desktop mode first. Once you're in Desktop mode, open the Discover software center, which is basically like an app store for the Steam Deck. Search for the web browser you want to install (like Firefox, Chrome, etc.), click install, and voilà! After it's installed, you can switch back to Gaming mode and find your browser in the Non-Steam section.

Honestly, you might not even need to install a browser. Steam's built-in web functionality covers a lot, especially for quick searches or community access. But if you're set on it, Desktop mode is your friend for installing anything extra.
Just boot into Desktop mode, and treat it like a regular Linux PC. Use the Discover app to find and install your browser. Simple as that.
