@stib@aus.social How's #Bazzite for a normal desktop usage aside from Gaming?

    @berniethewordsmith@neopaquita.es great. #writtenfrommybazzite It's not a "gaming os". it's an atomic fedora with strong gaming support. @stib@aus.social

    @berniethewordsmith@neopaquita.es @stib@aus.social I'm using the Gnome version, it's a normal desktop as long as you don't set it up to boot into Steam. The only part that may feel strange to a Linux veteran is that it is atomic/immutable, for a new user I don't think it's normally an issue. Universal Blue also produce Aurora and Bluefin, which aren't gaming focussed, and they're all built on Fedora Silverblue/Kinoite.

  • @berniethewordsmith@neopaquita.es mostly good with the rare annoyance. I've been using Linux for fifteen years or so. On laptops I'll try a new-to-me distro every few months. Desktop-wise on my gaming machine Bazzite on the whole just works. I think the only issue I see on a semi regular basis is being unable to interact with an in focus application until it's selected through the running applications picker or whatever it's actually called. Out of the box some Steam launches would take forever to load initially due to something like rendering shaders only it wasn't quite that. I had to add a few lines to a config file to resolve.

    @berniethewordsmith@neopaquita.es @stib@aus.social there's a couple other spins that are less gaming focused - aurora and bluefin.
