Desktop/Handheld Gamers!

Bazzite comes formatted with compression and deduplication enabled for its BTRFS file system.

So your games shadercache and prefixes won't eat any extra space. (Compared to Steam OS).

Am a happy Bazzite user for ~3 years now.

Bazzite s good because its immutable so you can't fuck it up as easily.

Kind of disappointing when what you want isn't in the discover store but I imagine most people won't really be bothered by that.

Cachyos is another good one if you want handheld mode option, and in my opinion is better than bazzite.

Ubuntus not bad if you are a noob because it is really easy to google for and figure stuff out, and software wise I think most stuff works for Ubuntu. But for numerous reasons I do not support or like Ubuntu anymore. And I used them sense xenial xeurs or whatever until focal fossa was released, then started moving to arch based.

Counterpoint: some of the advice out there is so old that it doesn't work due to the command formatting having changed

I imagine that could compound too when you ask google something and the ai search results brings up older stuff because that's more documented.
