The future is looking bright for bazzite
I just installed it today! It's so easy to set up and use, games have been working right out of the box and I like the security of rollback updates. I'm brand new to Linux and i think it has the potential to convert people over
It started as an experiment to get off the Windows 11 train wreck for me and now I can't imagine ever going back. Linux is so far ahead, it's not even a competition.
I mean that’s a bit of a general statement. But Some distros are very good, for laptops however? Power management is a chore and most fixes for that don’t work that well on either Bluefin or Bazzite.
I get 10+ hours on Aurora-DX + AMD laptop. I think AMD might be the part which makes the big difference.
No special config, just out of the box.
Ngl I've downloaded it to my laptop and I haven't had to do anything. Everything has just worked so far. And if something stops working, the immutability means I can just roll back an update
Oh awesome! I looked into rolling my own image to combine Aurora-DX with Bazzite about a month or so ago, but I've been really busy since and hadn't made much of a start. This is really exciting to see, will rebase over on my desktop as soon as NVIDIA gets support.
Amazing stuff Bluefin-DX really changed the way I setup and maintain my progjects in a good way.
What do you do differently? I've been on Bluefin for 2 years but still never bothered with dev containers or anything
Generally take a more containerised approach to my development, before I just had one big folder for projects and various others. It made me figure out how to be more organised especially with dependancies and folder layout.
I think I'm able to say now that I'm a seasoned Linux user, possibly even an advanced user. But, I'm still considering replacing windows 11 on my gaming PC with bazzite. Just because it's easy mode, doesn't make it inferior in any way. I'm not suggesting that's what your inferring, just felt like chiming in
