To be fair, the GPD brand has been around for years so it’s not like they saw the SteamDeck release and tried to profit on it. They’ve been THE brand that has been trying to push the portable gaming pc paradigm for a decade, until Valve just “made it right” (price, performances and usability).
It doesn’t speak of the quality of the products nor the viability of their specific solutions, just a reminder they’re not a “random” brand.
All I can say is that projects were many on iOS during the Reddit API debacle in June and that now, barely any gets updated.
