Agree on distrobox and I’d put it before homebrew

Don’t take this wrong, but you should refrain from commenting on what you don’t know. Immutable distros have to fight a lot of disinformation already.

Yeah, I don’t understand OP’s post, in good part because it’s really not saying anything, just mentioning some vague “problems!”, what are those problems, that distrobox can’t handle?

but for desktop use it limits you a lot

For example? Because I’ve read this repeated a lot by people who don’t understand immutable distros. Of course you can’t “dnf install clang”, but you can use distrobox for that, ends up fairly similar.

I prefer Sidebery to Tree Style Tabs

C’est frainçaise

Hmmm, yeah I think it’s mostly that documentation online isn’t compatible with immutable distros.
For example the login screen background can easily be changed from the KDE Settings, but if you search online docs it probably tells you to edit something in /usr, and that’s on the immutable part of the filesystem, changing that need an overlay I think.

May I ask:
Are these your first Linux experiences?
What is it about Bazzite that you didn’t like?

I’m asking for future reference, I’ve got friends who are getting curious and to me Bazzite seems quite beginner-friendly, but I’m not a beginner so maybe I’m missing something

First thing I wanna implore you do is create a separate partition on your boot drive for your /home folder. Distro hopping is super normal when you’re starting out, and by separating your home folder makes distro hopping very easy.

Nowadays with the various distros’ differences in filesystem preference and layout, I think an external backup would be better.

Mini? Excuse me, I’ll have you know that our own fascist leader actually invented the term fascism, was in power before Hitler and for a longer period.

I won’t have you besmirch our glorious history of oppression like that.

Bazzite on AMD with ultra-wide and 1440p dual-monitor setup here, zero problems

I think metal’s still going strong, but OP said heavy metal. If they meant classic heavy metal, there’s not many new artists doing that.

I’ve got one of those with bi-metallic strips, it’s 35 years old, works no problem.

3D File previews?? Who needs that?

someone’s not familiar with the 3d-printer-building scene

Yeah me too! Give me money.

Idk it seems a weird trolling attempt. Or maybe mental illness.

Ok, but can you hold it above your head?

On the other hand, when service X is down, you can go to another service or do something else… When half of the services are down, well…

I doubt it’s feet, but if it’s a distance, I guess it doesn’t matter much

Idk what 20/20 is, I guess you guys use a different scale, last mandatory vision test at work was 12/10 with 6/7 on I don’t remember which color recognition range, but I’m not sure about the latter 'cause it was ok last year and 6/7 the year before also. IIRC the best score for visual acuity is 18/10, but I don’t think they test that far during work visits, I’d have to go to the ophthalmologist to know.
