Personally, my only wish for Bazzite is a Cosmic version 👼 I tried it out recently and it seems fairly impressive
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Most people I know primarily use their desktop computers for games. Bazzite also works great for general purpose computing, although it isn't advertised as such.
It's like gaming laptops. The concept of something being "gaming" focused is nonsense bullshit pr spin.
If it's good at gaming it's basically just good at everything. But people gobble up gaming like leds on a serect lab chair.
TIL chairs have LEDs now
Agreed. Bloody fantastic for general purpose. Seems like a well kept secret. A lot of people assume Bazzite is just Steam in Big-Screen mode.
For some things.
For many things it isn't. It is usable (I use it) but with a bunch of workarounds for anything embedded development-related since it needs specific vendor software with device access. I have had to use a variety of distrobox + app image solutions that are often a bit worse than a system that installs them as native apps.
I don't personally count "embedded development-related" as "general computing" so I think there's a disconnect there. 😅
