This is not totally true. Deb packages will just activate the package manager and will mimic the feel of installing something on windows.

Bazzite is based on fedora atomic, which means I don't get debs and have to deal with flatpak, brew and distrobox

Okay, I kinda do get debs through the last one... I think. I've never used db before, my experience comes mostly from Ubuntu and Pop_OS!
