I installed arch recently, and the steam client was pretty easy to install. What really shocked me is that all the stuff that works fine on my steam deck also works fine in arch, so that's nice
Well makes sense, steamos is arch based right?
to be honest that's exactly why I'm on arch and not ubuntu or cntos. Ironically it was gpt that helped me get it set up and it would have had a lot more trouble without it, but now that the job is done I don't want it hanging around in the OS like 'hey buddy squeaking past ya gettn a beer'
Ahh I saw bazzite and was like, might as well be that one. I don't know if I have a preference for immutable/atomic setups yet, but so far I'm enjoying it. Kde plasma is awesome, setting up my own key shortcuts is great, audio device management is super cool. Bazzite has a Bazzar for flatpaks built in with a bunch of cool gaming related stuff.
