This is the one thing I miss from using Gnome. I might look into a way to recreate on KDE but I’m already used to using KDE as-is now.

Glad to see the use of “temporary” code started early.
I really started to dislike Windows and projects like Bazzite made it incredibly easy to make the jump. The wife is now gaming in Linux for the same reasons.

Why people still recommend it when there is Fedora and Opensuse with KDE and Gnome?English3·11 months agoOuch, didn’t realize the Nvidia build was struggling. Hopefully it gets patched up soon.
If there’s a previous commit before the issue is introduced you can pin it and wait to unpin until the issue gets resolved.

It’s an excellent platform when you know your end goal and how to get there, while providing “leading-edge” packages that’s great for gaming.
But a project like Bazzite? Phenomenal new user experience for gaming and a very easy recommend.

Thrickles@lemm.eeto Linux@lemmy.ml•I'm going to reinstall linux on my computer. What is it like to run something Silverblue based these days ?English5·1 year ago+1 for Bazzite. I stopped hopping around when I tried it with Fedora 38, been using it since.
I’ve had one problem related to kernel 6.9.x affecting Steam game stability on my old hardware ( i5 2500k). Newer systems have BIOS settings that mitigate the issue. It’s not a Bazzite specific problem. However, I was able to roll back and pin a previous image that uses kernel 6.8.x. Will unpin and update once I see a fix deployed.

Yes, and I love it.
I only use my PC for gaming and web browsing. I mainly stuck with Fedora, but also used Tumbleweed and Nobara. Regardless of which distro I used I was never fully satisfied with the initial setup or upkeep.
-
Fedora was great, but I was hopping around often and there was always a setup process to get Steam and what not installed and set up.
-
Nobara is a great option with gaming tools installed and setup for you. However, it’s maintained by a single (awesome) dude and major upgrades often require some manual work arounds.
-
Tumbleweed was great until there were updates. More times than not, updates failed due to repo or dependency issues.
Bazzite, however, is the first (and only, so far) distro where I quite literally install, reboot, launch and log into Steam, start playing games. No other setup steps were required as everything I need is baked into the image. And with the automatic updates there’s been no upkeep.
Since installing Bazzite I’ve had no desire to try anything else, which is great. More time for gaming. 🎮

Doom 1 was my first real PC game and will always be special, as will Doom 2.
I adore zdoom and the modding community.
Doom 2016 is hands down my favorite after multiple playthroughs. It just feels incredibly satisfying to play.
Never finished Doom Eternal. The changes to combat are too frustrating to me.

Bazzite right now. I only use my PC for gaming and get limited play time, so I usually wake it up and straight into a game. Bazzite has worked extremely well for me to achieve that with virtually no maintenance so far (updates are automated).
No deaths since 2011 seems sus.

Typically, no. AMD (and Intel) are generally plug and play with the same OS install. Drivers are open source and provided via Kernel and Mesa packages.
I do not use EndeavorOS so I cannot confirm if any additional packages are needed for Vulkan support. However, that wouldn’t change if you’re just upgrading from one AMD GPU to another.
