We recently had the exciting news that Valve plans to expand SteamOS onto more devices, starting with supporting more handhelds, which caused plenty of people to be curious about the future of the popular SteamOS-like Bazzite Linux.
Building a new PC soon and really thinking about to try out one of the more gaming focused distros, so happy to see there will be multiple to choose from. I’m on Mint for a while now and had very good experience with gaming and performance. Normally I would not have time to do the whole “distro hop” thing, but damn I just might :)
One of the incredibly cool things about Bazzite (and all of the Silverblue based OSs) you can very easily rebased to another flavor. The only caveat is that apparently the Gnome flavors will cause issues with the KDE flavors or something. It’s a Gnome issue from my understanding.
Rebasing takes a few minutes and a reboot, and you can easily revert it.
