Does the community have any thoughts on Bazzite for a desktop gaming machine?

My primary use with be mouse and keyboard, but the deck interface looks nice for the 10% of the time I want to use a controller. I also hear that HDR and VRR work better under it then most of the DEs.

Anyone out there using Bazzite for a similar use case? I’d also be curious to here about other ways people are using it.

    I use Bazzite exclusively on desktop. It’s pretty much unmatched, and it “just works” out of the box especially on AMD.

      I do have an AMD GPU, so that sounds like it will make things easier.

      Are you running the -deck variant that gives you a Steam deck experience that has a DE for “desktop mode” or just the version with a more traditional DE?

        I run the non-deck variant with the traditional DE (KDE 6, in this case). I admit that I haven’t tried the deck variants but it should work similar with the difference being the default environment to boot into, irrc.
