They could have easily crammed the Steam Deck full of stuff to make it hard to use for piracy - locking down everything, making it usable only to play games you legitimately own, force you to go through who knows what hoops in order to play games on it. That’s what Nintendo or Apple or most other companies do....
So no I do not have an idea since I know nothing about your system/setup.
BUT
I’d strongly recommend reading the documentation libalpm in regards to the nonsense symlink you created:
Hooks are read from files located in the system hook directory /usr/share/libalpm/hooks, and additional custom directories specified in pacman.conf(5) (the default is /etc/pacman.d/hooks).
Then you’re on your own. What the duck 🦆 do you expect to happen if you can’t even invest the 10sec to skim over a message (in the few events that there even is one) to see if it affects you and any manual intervention is required.
The entire point is that your DE has NO security features at all, those come ALL from the underlying system such as PAM for example, managing the authentication and such.
These stupid strawmans “huhr dur watch a video”
Besides that I’ll just answer the straw man argument anyway because it’s even stupid if you take it seriously YES YOU DO ACTUALLY LAUNCH GUI DIRECTLY FROM TTY.

The amount of fat required to provide significant insulation is not really feasible for humans with the addition that the feeling of being cold might even be increased.
Looking at the two big news publishers in my country. One isn’t reporting about the current bombings at all, while the other one is phrasing their words mostly anti-Palestinian....

I feel like the Steam Deck is the best proof of Gabe Newell's quote that "piracy is a service issue."

Which Desktop / Window Manager is most secure?
I use KDE. Some use GNOME. Most other options are probably to be left out as X11 is unsafe....
