So i tried to connect steamdeck to pc using usb and i read its immpossible because steamdeck is a computer and some explanation on quora about strong master slave relationship. But then why is it possible for android phones to connect to pc whilist also having the ability to use USB and other usb c accesories. Also why cant it be a toggle? So that you can change whetewer this usb( or device ) is reciving data ot sending data .

    You can’t connect a steam deck to your PC?

      You can connect your Steam Deck to your PC with USB, but all it’s going to do is charge it.

        I think that the Deck is able to connect as a device (MTP or CDC?), but there has been trouble with that so the current OS disables it.
