Steamdeck vs Mac Mini M2

Steamdeck ( AMD Zen 2 4c/8t CPU with a clock speed of 2.4-3.5 GHz, and an AMD RDNA 2 GPU with 8 compute units at 1.0-1.6 GHz, 16GB RAM) vs Apple Mac Mini with M2 processor and 8GB RAM

Honestly, the biggest advantage of the Deck is not being forced to use Windows or MacOS. Both OSes drive me insane, the ad-less interface of Linux is all the peace I need.

If you own a tablet you can use it as an external touch screen monitor for the deck with SuperDisplay, which makes it a great travel PC with stuff that you're probably carrying with you anyway. I'd love to see a comparison of power usage between the the mac and a SteamDeck, I'm considering which one to get to use as a power efficient 24/7 server

Mac is obviously going to win, but that's pretty cool that the Steamdeck can even do it!! Very cool use case.
