Those background recording modes sound like a great way to unnecessarily trash my SSD lifespan.
Edit: Also… When are they fixing the freaking mobile app? It’s broken for almost half a year now.
A. Plenty of programs are constantly caching, wiping, and recaching data. You’re acting like shadowplay and other programs dont already have modes which do a rolling write on your SSD. And to be clear, this isnt something you really need to worry about with most modern SSDs from reliable brands. If you have an ADATA, maybe dont use it.
B. What about the steam mobile app is broken? Genuinely curious.

Not really, or in the kilobytes at best.

Shadowplay isn’t a thing on AMD nor Linux, so no.

Every SSD has limited write cycles, no matter how good it is. I spent a good amount of money on my Samsung SSDs, that doesn’t mean I’m not going to conserve their lifespan with useless “features”.
What about the steam mobile app is broken? Genuinely curious.
Everything. The whole entire app. It’s not starting and just shows a grey screen. Which means you can’t access your 2 factor either. It’s already down to a 2.5 rating on the app store.
