Valve responds to a single user support ticket about sniffing the Steam Deck vent, saying you probably shouldn't for your health.

IGN: "Valve Pleads With Steam Deck Owners to Stop Inhaling Exhaust Fumes"

Clickbait alive and well I see.

@gamingonlinux NGL that's really cringe, not your post but the fact they decided to make a whole clickbait story from it. Not surprising though considering it's IGN

@gamingonlinux sniffing Deck vent air and licking Switch cartridges, that's what modern gaming is about.

@gamingonlinux 300 indie devs who could have had the games they released today written about are probably very annoyed

@gamingonlinux We know Gabe Newell personally responds to every Valve support ticket, so this can only be construed as the company's very serious official position on the matter.

@gamingonlinux as long as the SD gers free publicity I'm okay with.

A horribly photoshopped screen capture, apparently from the infamous 2008 rap classic "Smell yo Deck" by Riskay. She lays on her bed next to her Steam Deck, preparing to intentionally overheat the device and freebase the resulting thermal paste fumes.
