This along with Bazzite do seem to make SteamOS redundant.
Edit: I read the front of the wiki, this isn’t much like SteamOS, this sounds like it will be good for KDE enthusiasts and OEMs. I’ll give it a try after it cooks more, looks like a great distro for a laptop
I have it on my SteamDeck right now. It’s my first immutable distro besides SteamOS so I’m not even sure which differences are “steam deck” and which are “bazzite”. One of these days I’ll try it on my gaming machine. I barely play MS Flight Sim anymore and don’t see myself buying 2024. X-Plane can probably scratch that itch now and I don’t play online with anti-cheat so I’ll be able to kill windows. Bazzite will probably be perfect for it because of that immutability. I spend way more time with my laptop, the gaming machine is expected to just work right when I turn it on.
I tried it, immutable is not for me on the desktop, went back to arch. Bazzite had HDR working on the desktop with my nvidia card, ended up doing the same in arch after finding out it there was a flag I needed to set, personally haven’t had an issue with that set.
If you’re good with immutable though, it seemed decent enough to me, was little to no fussing to get things going. I don’t really distrohop though, historically I use debian on my machines but arch has been a solid experience in the past month.

Have you used bazzite? I’ve been looking into it myself
