New Steam Deck update introduces longer custom boot animations
Valve released its latest Steam Deck beta update yesterday, which includes longer boot animations among the usual array of bug fixes and optimizations.

There’s no official release date for the public build right now, but you can opt yourself in for testing by heading into Settings > System > Steam Update Channel on the Steam Deck console.
