Please send help!

... I use Bazzite btw

[-] Natanox@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 month ago

I use openSUSE btw.

[-] OR3X@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I'm glad all of you are using various Linux distros and I'm glad there is so much choice within this community. Keep it up!

The user base for other universal-blue distros like Aurora is way smaller so it's actually special. I use Aurora btw.

[-] popekingjoe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

It's on my Framework 13. 😌

[-] 1984@lemmy.today 1 points 1 month ago

Haha... No its not, but bazzite users really want it to be. :)

[-] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I don’t use Bazzite, but I do recommend it for new Linux users.

I'm considering Bazzite for a Win 10 machine that I only use to play Steam games. Really hoping that it "just works" for most of my library.

Could I consider any game that is Steam Deck Verified will work fine? Am I likely to run into a ton of issues? I game exclusively with a wireless XBone controller.

I use CachyOS BeeTeeDubs...

What would you recommend for a gaming machine with some pretty old hardware (1080Ti etc), PopOS or Bazzite? I mainline Mint, but I have this hardware coming in and I'd like to get an idea of what I want to do with it before it gets here.

[-] Lumisal@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

Garuda xfce maybe

Bazzite didn't run well on a 1660 super DDR3 machine I tried recently.

And by didn't run well I mean it didn't start.

[-] Don_alForno@feddit.org 1 points 4 weeks ago

I'm on a 1080TI and Mint works like a charm.

[-] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 4 weeks ago

Personally I'd pick Xubuntu but that's just me. Try a few different live distros and see what clicks?

[-] Lazycog@sopuli.xyz 0 points 1 month ago

Don't know what's all the fuss about (I use mint btw)

[-] bvoigtlaender@feddit.org 0 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Thats great!

I actually don't see the benefit of Bazzite, its supposed to be gaming. But I didn't really ran into much problems using Bottles under Fedora either (which feels much less bloated), but maybe i was just lucky. I play mostly indie games from itch.

I like bootc and compiling my own images exactly how I want them :3 Though, this isn't bazzite specific

That’s ok. TempleOS is not just an operating system. It’s a spiritual experience. Also, it’s not like he would have made it useful if he kept working on it.

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 0 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

You are late. They moved on to CachyOS. Give it a few months and it will be a new one again.

[-] KindnessIsPunk@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 month ago

Dammit I really did just recommend CachyOS to someone, although I also like OpenSUSE!

[-] LucidNightmare@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

openSUSE Tumbleweed made me love my computer again. It also games like I'm not even missing anything from Windoze. NVIDIA GPU and everything. I'm sure there are "better" distros, but openSUSE was the one that got me to stay, and I couldn't be happier!

[-] _cryptagion@anarchist.nexus 0 points 1 month ago

I did move on to CachyOS lmao.

but in my defense, it's because the CachyOS people in matrix wouldn't shut up about how good it was.

[-] zexyqag@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

In which ways is it better? right now I'm defaulting to bazzite for my desktop as I already got a steam deck.

[-] _cryptagion@anarchist.nexus 1 points 1 month ago

Well I can’t speak for everyone, but I noticed significant gains in a couple of the games I played when switching. Specifically Minecraft and Dune: Awakening. I’m getting upwards of 100fps in Minecraft with BSL shaders on ultra now, and I’m playing on a laptop. When I was on Bazzite I was getting less than 60fps with shaders, so I didn’t use them at all.

Depending on the DE you pick, it can be pretty good on the battery life too.

[-] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 month ago

Agreed! Skim my post history. I’m in the meme.

And it’s because I’m so happy I have a plug n play version of Linux that I don’t have to troubleshoot. It’s more stable than W11 on my work computer. I love it so much. I could throw it on my grandmas computer and she would be fine. I’d recommend it over Mint for new Linux users.

I wouldn’t recommend it for people who love using the command line or run virtual machines.
