My man, have you heard of Bazzite?

[–] kadup@lemmy.world 39 points 2 days ago (27 children)

I hate to go against the flow here, but I absolutely do not recommend Bazzite as a desktop OS. Surely as a living room or handheld PC thing, but not your main OS.

Immutable distros create a lot of pain when you need a package outside of the also problematic Flatpak world, and whilst there are ways to install them on Bazzite, regular users with no Linux knowledge would scream.

Honestly, even for a living room PC it's a pain. My living room machine uses Corsair fan controllers, so I had to battle to get OpenLinkHub installed, and a realtek 2.5gbe card, which I attempted to get working and gave up (kernel src package does not match the kernel for some reason). Not overly fun.

Well, if you look at my downvotes and read the upvoted reply below, you'll see you do not exist! Yes, apparently regular users do not have hardware that requires any out of tree drivers. Your very reasonable 2.5gbe card probably does not exist, it's all a product of your imagination! Bazzite is perfect!
