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 .
Back in the days we had these things. But I doubt this would work with USB-C adapters and a Steam Deck.
You don’t need those, unlike most PCs with mediocre USB controllers, the Steam Deck can actually act as either a host or a gadget/client.
USB 4 and Thunderbolt 3 can also do bidirectional communication.
The cable you linked will work for other devices that don’t have modern USB and lack gadget mode support.
