I posted this before, but it feels like going back to the best days of PC ownership. It's fast, I'm in control, everything I want works and I honestly don't think about my OS very much.
I chose bazzite since I love gaming, but of course it's just a competent OS overall with which I also do my private office tasks.
Booting up my PC finally feels like a joy again.
Like most people I use Windows 11 at work and the contrast is enormous.

Open file explorer. Start a search. Open new tab in file explorer. Notice the folder path didn't change. Observe that you permanently glitched the file explorer path bar until you close file explorer.
I hate using this buggy OS.
This is my experience to a T. Picked Bazzite for gaming. It just works. Anyone worried about not being able to do the things you think you need Windows for need not worry. You can do all of that and more.
