I’d been using Fedora Silverblue for forever, but have been dabbling with Bazzite recently. I don’t really game on my PC, but there were some niceties from Universal Blue or Bazzite that I wanted.

Buuut I’m getting kind of annoyed with some of the UX changes that Bazzite makes from stock GNOME. The shell extensions I can disable, but I keep finding things: fonts and window switching (alt+tab) behavior are the most recent.

#GNOME #Linux #Bazzite #UniversalBlue

I’m fine with other changes, like using Bazaar by default and the way updates are handled.

Should I just go back to Silverblue, or is there a stock GNOME Universal Blue image that would make sense to use? What would the less-visible differences be?

Also, would it be a terrible idea to rebase from Bazzite to a stock GNOME uBlue image (if it exists) or Silverblue? I’ve successfully rebased between images before but it’s been a while. 😅

@cassidy there's this image that's basically Silverblue but with some uBlue packages applied:

I've been using the Kinoite one as a base for my laptop system. Works fine.

About rebasing, if you keep it in the same DE (Gnome in your case), should be fine.
