Situatie
The Steam Deck can do much more than you’d expect at first glance. It’s not just a gaming handheld, it’s a Linux-based computer with controllers attached. However, it might not be immediately obvious where to find certain apps and programs on Steam Deck that you’re used to using on your phone or PC. For instance, knowing how to access Google Chrome isn’t intuitive, at first.
It turns out, it’s very easy to set up Google Chrome on Valve’s handheld, as long as you know how to do it. Without further ado, here are the step-by-step instructions for how to install and use Google Chrome on Steam Deck.
