There is a decky plugin that lets you turn on kde connect in game mode, though you have to pair in desktop mode first
I really ought to look into decky sometime, huh??
Oh definitely
There's plugins for tons of things from customization (like custom boot and suspend animations) to tools (like mangohud for performance/energy monitoring) to quality of life (like kde connect or syncthing or teamspeak right in the sidebar)
And it's super easy to install and update, just go to their website in desktop mode and download and run the executable to install it, and then you can just install plugins and update without needing to leave game mode
