Huh. I wonder if this is maybe related to the Steam Machine? It would be a good use case for it, and the timing makes sense. I know the Deck boots into Steam Big Picture at boot, but you can get to the desktop, and I think it's KDE. I've only used someone else's Deck for a short time, but I remember it working fine because it has a touch screen. Without that, you need something like this.

I don't think so. It's been around for a while but was unmaintained for a bit so it wasn't compatible with Plasma 6. That's why it was removed from the Debian repositories. It's just been a case of someone who wanted to maintain it coming along. AFAIK it's mainly aimed at Smart TVs.
