We recently had the exciting news that Valve plans to expand SteamOS onto more devices, starting with supporting more handhelds, which caused plenty of people to be curious about the future of the popular SteamOS-like Bazzite Linux.
Bazzite is what got me started on fedora and so so far so good on 3 gaming machines. Using kinoite on a thin client to run Kodi for TV viewing
I’ve about had enough of mint on the gaming laptop and am obviously considering slapping bazzite on that one also, but nix or endeavour sound like pro-style shit, so I’m also considering them!
Honestly became obsessed with NixOS last year and haven’t turned back, I’m not much into the gaming side of things these days but installing steam and running a few games has never been easier.
There is Mint [https://linuxmint.com/download_lmde.php](Debian Edition) if you’re interested. Lacks some of the homegrown tools of the main edition last I checked, but it’s there for those who want it.
Edit:
Not sure why my link isn’t displaying correctly. If someone can tell me what I’m doing wrong I’d appreciate it, since I’ve tried it on Thunder on Android as well as in Librewolf on PC.

Nix is a scary place…

I’m on endeavour for my devices, def a solid option!
I like what the mint team does on their end but I’m over Ubuntu. If mint shifts their base to debian I’ll consider it again.

i think you got the URL and text backwards. Try
[description](http://url.com/)That actually was exactly it. Can’t believe I missed that multiple times while editing the comment. Thanks for the help.
Absolutely, it’s a good move. I’ve been recommending that to friends who are hesitant to branch out of Debian and are over Ubuntu.
I’m hoping mint eventually makes LMDE their default. Tho until then, even just a baseline install of Debian is easy enough these days.

That’s it, thanks. The Markdown to make it part of the comment just isn’t working for me for some reason.
