  • I haven’t had too much issues with Bazzite for general use. I still use windows for work, so there’s some things I haven’t tried setting up and have no clue how different they’d be on an immutable vs a mutable OS.

    I’ve used Mint before (like 10 years ago) and somehow it kept breaking (I’m sure I somehow caused it, but I only knew enough to break things and not enough to understand how I was breaking them). 🤷‍♀️ For most people, I’d think how Bazzite works would be acceptable. For some power users, the immutable OS aspect might be annoying, but I think that’s mostly an issue for people who are coming from a different Linux distro (it did bother me at first and I did consider switching to something like PopOS) or people who want to run fairly dated or obscure software (granted, VMs are sometimes already necessary for that - at a previous job, we had to use windows 95 VMs to run a specific version of software).




  • I use cli just for making virtual mics and audio sinks and for .jar, so things people who are afraid of cli probably wouldn’t even consider doing. Currently using bazzite. The immutable nature make it annoying when you want to do some things via cli that don’t work like they would in vanilla fedora, but that doesn’t seem like it would be a problem for someone who doesn’t want to use cli. Bazzite includes bazaar for accessing flatpaks and works fine usually.
