  • Nobara was nice but doing simple tinkering with the theme and startup splash led to some system issues for me. So I had to reinstall a couple of times. But it lead me to realize I really like kde.

    Bazzite has been my daily driver for about two weeks and so far I’m finding it to be more stable but still not perfect when it comes to gaming. I can say setup was super smooth and I didn’t have to do anything to jump into playing games with steam. It does have a quirk on my system where the kde taskbar stops visually updating and eventually loses functionality after I exit a game. I can restart kde and that resolves it. It is entirely possible that is a Wayland issue though. When I was using Nobara I had x11 so a little apples to oranges there. It is a bit of a different OS for me since it is a container focused OS. I’m having to get used to it but I think I like it. I think some of the issues I’ve experienced with it are just from my lack of knowledge with how I’m supposed to use it if there are more advanced things I’m trying to do. It has a focus on using flatpak for everything but if you want a package manager you can use containerization to install whichever Linux subsystem and package manager you want and run the applications that way. It’s neat. It’s kind of both easier and more complex at the same time.
