TLDR: its not that it just works, but that it basically always just works

I currently run a mix of Ubuntu, fedora and bazzite machines at home and by far my favorite is bazzite. I may be a bit different as I work with containers, docker and k8s every day but it did take a little for it all to “click” for me. Once it did I’ve had no issues running anything with bazzite. On the other hand the number of hours I’ve spent chasing down issues on the Ubuntu machines due to dependency conflicts is embarrassing. Those issues simply do not happen with bazzite and the time I’ve spent learning the new mentality has been more enjoyable and significantly less than fixing problems on either distro. The atomicity and forcing isolation using containers is a paradigm shift, looking at is as workarounds, distro limits and Mcgyvering sort of misses the forest for the trees, but I get that its not for everyone

1·4 months agoTo be honest, a lot of my issues are probably just getting used to plasma over gnome. The atomic part so far hasn’t really been inconvenient

2·4 months agoYeah apparently the current fix is to just get an AMD card or a wireless headset. I’m trying to get a steam vr alternative running which is non trivial on bazzite, but it just “avoids” the bugs in the nvidia wired drivers

6·4 months agoBazzite for the past two days has not been as easy as everyone makes of sound, and I say this as a software engineer that works with Linux 5 days a week. Some of the UI choices are just weird and VR support with Nvidia is so horrible I may end up having to dual boot.
Yeah I think I mostly agree, my comments were mainly about atomic distros, bazzite being the first I’ve used as the example
