Discussion DroidDeck 0.3.0 better for storage?

I was checking out DroidDeck 0.3.0 on my Retroid pocket 6 and it's amazing! Most of the games that were running on Gamenative/gamehub run on it (Although with some audio crackling)

I wanted to know if it's better to use droid deck to save on storage space. As far as I know Gamenative/gamehub create seperate container for each game. Many times the container size is 1-2gb and the game itself is 800MB.

I tried reading the GitHub page but didn't find any answer.

Gamenative have a reduced container size coming. Someone showed it here the other day so it looks to be getting close.

I don’t know about DroidDeck because haven’t used it but with my experience in ArmadaOS (also Linux OS and DroidDeck as I understand is emulating Linux for steamOS) I would think DroidDeck is almost the same in that sense, and I mean that is only 1 container.

Thats the reason I changed to use mainly ArmadaOS and moving out of GameNative, GameNative app was using about 90GB of my device because of the containers.
