I figured out how to easily use Steam headlessly for Remote Play on Linux.

Took me a few hours to figure out, with some questions asked, but with this, I no longer have to deal with Sunshine or other janky ways of playing (steam) games remotely.

I’ll be making a repository with some packaging andother convenience functions soon.

    If this is wrong, please feel free to correct me, I’m happy to try again but the last time I tried sunshine would not stream due to the fact there was no monitor and no virtual monitor solutions would work.

    Just confirmed on call with my sibling, my desktop had 0 monitors plugged in, and this method works for me. Maybe try it out and see?

    I’m not emulating a PS Vita, I am streaming PC games to my actual real OLED OG PS Vita.

    Oo, That sounds awesome! How long have you been doing that?
