Are there any guides, tutorials or similar on how to use Steam more privately?

I’m at a point where I’d like to play certain games, but I dislike that they’re exclusively available on consoles and Steam for Desktop.

Crow,

I got steam running and was able to download some games however a decent part of my library doesn’t allow me to download the games and says it’s only compatible on windows. Am I out of luck with those games or am I missing a step. I downloaded some of those same games on my steam deck so I assume i’m missing something just not sure what it is.

Crow,

goat, i appreciate the help!

No backlight, no Wi-Fi, just an SD card that I can load epub files and small PDFs. The screen is slow and the contrast isn’t the best. The “touch screen” is...
