Graphs can be found here on their github. Since around mid November the active user count for Bazzite has gone up by around 16k active users.

Personally, my only wish for Bazzite is a Cosmic version 👼 I tried it out recently and it seems fairly impressive

Installed it Friday for the first time. Its ridiculously fast. I had everything up in running in less than an hour. It just flies, I m in awe. Only issue I'm having is "trouble" setting up pass-through for the sound system. Currently stuck in stereo. Only spent a few min to tweak things before leaving, though.

Edit: Turns out it had nothing to do with Bazzite. My wife had unplugged the rear speakers , and i had unplugged the subwoofer when plugging new PC. No wonder 5.1 wasnt working...

In my mother language, kinoite sounds like "what a night", ans I can't read it without some giggling >.<

Also, TIL that kinoite is a mineral

Bazzite is also a bit unique in the way that it's mostly Windows users jumping ship, and not Linux users distro-hopping. At least from what I can tell online.

I was very happy with Bazzite on my Ally X but version 43 (them or Fedora) broke my WiFi. Then the USBC port has a physical problem as it seems to only deliver power.

My only option without LAN atm was a cloud recovery to Win 11. Uuugh.

Is this counting people who installed it and then left out of disappointment? I installed it once, and then I couldn't navigate through the menu as mouse-less-ly as Linux Mint can, and Steam wouldn't show any windows at all despite updating (only right-clicking the system tray icon would bring up that menu, but then clicking those entries or double-clicking the icon did nothing). It was just a really disappointing experience so I returned to Mint Cinnamon.

The graph shows weekly active users. So you wouldn't be counted unless you actively boot Bazzite.

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.
