How to Partition Your Steam Deck
Partitioning your Steam Deck is kinda like giving your digital games room to breathe in their own apartments. First up, you'll want to back up any important data because partitioning can be the digital equivalent of moving furniture—you don't wanna lose anything precious. Next, grab a tool like GParted; it's like the moving van for your data. Boot your Steam Deck from a USB stick that has this tool, and then you can resize, move, or create partitions to your heart's content. Remember, this is kinda like surgery for your Steam Deck, so if you're not confident, maybe reach out to a tech-savvy buddy to help!

Done this before, and trust me, it's not for the faint-hearted. Make sure you really need that extra partition. If you're looking to organize or run different OS, it's cool, but back everything up. GParted is your friend here, but so is patience and a steady hand.
Just don't. Unless you're super savvy with tech stuff, partitioning your Steam Deck can end up in tears. Enjoy it as is, vast library and all, and save yourself the headache.
