Mint is great! I use it for my laptop. Lightweight and responsive, perfect for utility. But for my desktop Bazzite is king 😎

what? I sit in the Linux ecosystem for years - Literally my first PC as a child was on Ubuntu - and never heared of ”Bazzite”? Can you elaborate?

simplest explanation is that it’s for people who want to game on Linux and use Linux with minimal configuration and tinkering. It just has a lot of sane defaults like:

  • Nvidia drivers and Steam pre-installed
  • Flatpak for apps (installing packages is discouraged since doing so recklessly can break your system)
  • “immutable” core (this is harder to explain but basically it makes it very hard to break your system)
  • background updates with easy rollback in case something goes wrong (just be warned that by default you can only rollback to the previous state, nothing older than that)
  • Wayland
  • advanced tools in case you need them (podman, distrobox, ujust scripts, brew, DX mode)
  • active community to provide help and support
