I’m just so sick of Microsoft and Google. But there’s two things holding me back:
-
I wanna play Steam games on my PC
-
I am just an amateur hobbyist, not a tech wizard
Is there any hope for me?

Bazzite. Set it and forget it. 2mo on my new PC build, has only ever had bazzite. Runs like a dream.
yeah I started with popOS, used it for about a year, then tried Fedora for a week but figured if Im moving distro to get the latest and dive deeper might as well go with Arch, that lasted like two months with hyprland then decided to try bazzite and its been solid, everything I need is just there already, shortcuts working just like windows so its easy to transition from work laptop to personal, screen shots, lock, mounting network shares etc
I have a relatively easy and nice setup on PopOS currently and I don’t want you switch just because I don’t want to lose my files and setup.
Is there a process you recommend to transfer UI, etc. to another distro as an experiment? I know how to transfer my video files, for example, just don’t know how or if other programs can transfer easily between distros.
Yeah I haven’t had to open the terminal or download a single driver yet. Another person says that apparently it has all kinds of problems and breaks all the time because it’s based on fedora?
The fact people suggest anything fedora based to new users is even more baffling then suggesting pure arch.
Fedora loves to just randomly destroy itself every so often. Hell they are currently thinking of doing it right now!
If your going to do a gamer distro like bazzite as a gamer your objectively better off just going with cachyOS.
It’s literally the same base as steam OS, has half the problems. And wont just implode because fedora decides to change something stupid yet again.
It may be baffling to you but honestly I’ve had no issues and you clearly know more about the subject than I do. I just wasn’t aware of any of what you mentioned, though I certainly am not calling it into question.
As somebody who is pretty good with computers but is by no means a coder/programmer/engineer of any sort, I’ve just been very happy with bazzite 🤷♂️
I have not seen those problems, but I’ve also only been on it for a couple of months. I will keep an eye out for that and keep cachyOS in mind.
even my parents and grandparents are on bazzite which massively reduced my family tech support work, but it seems like fedora is indeed being fedora again and discussions are for dropping 32 bit which would be troubling for gamers still.
