I’m looking at switching to Linux for my Ally X! I use it docked for work during the day, so I need a robust desktop experience.

I stream games from my old desktop using Sunshine / Moonlight - since I stream games unless traveling (and when traveling I already pick from a more limited set of games for battery’s sake), I don’t strictly need great gaming support - but I do need the built in controller to work and such.

Bazzite is obviously quite popular for the Ally but I’m wondering if for my use case where I need robust desktop and games are streamed from a Windows box, perhaps it’s not necessarily the best distribution.

Any thoughts? Thanks!

• Natively on default Windows?
• Natively on another OS like Bazzite?
• Streaming via Sunshine/Apollo/etc?

And as a follow up, why do you play that way?

I mostly stream to my Ally from my desktop via Sunshine - it can run almost anything at high settings on 1080p, and the Ally can be left on low power mode so the battery lasts forever.

I've left Windows installed on the Ally for maximum compatibility, but I'm playing around with the idea of a Linux distro because if I keep the desktop on Windows I can still play games that don't like Linux.

Curious what the rest of you all do and why!

I'm currently working through Avowed. It seems solid so far - I'm not far enough along to really have a fully formed opinion, but romping around fighting stuff with Garrus again has been a blast if nothing else.

We're still making trips to pick up all the pieces but I think we'll have at least 4 IBC chop and flip style grow beds and 4 whole IBCs

We have 40 Sacramento Perch - roughly fingerling size with a couple slightly bigger ones the supplier gave us because the fingerlings weren't feed-trained but the bigger ones were.

We'd like to acquire giant river prawn for a (separate) tank as well.

How would you assemble these into a working system with these parameters? Curious to see the different designs!
