Hi there.
I just got my first steam deck earlier this week, so I’ve been watching tutorial videos on installing and setting up things such as decky or emudeck. One thing that seems odd to me but I’m definitely noticing as a trend is that these videos are having you download an installer, then move that file to the desktop, then run the installer.

As long as I’ve been using computers I’ve always just run the installer right from wherever it downloaded to, including in Linux and haven’t seen an issue. I did that here too and they installed just fine as far as I can tell. Is there something I’m missing about this? Why would multiple videos mention this step if it didn’t matter?

My guess is this doesn’t matter, but i thought it was interesting.
