Bazzite (Linux OS) has LGBTQ mascot

[Bind0fGod]

It seems to be targeting younger audiences.

This is not okay anymore!

How do you know who the mascot goes to bed with?

Makes sense. Linux is the OS of choice for the trans community

Just weird Arch variants.

Bazzite is Fedora Atomic. It has nothing to do with Arch.

Bazzite has an arch variant Called Bazzite Arch

what is Bazzite used for, ive never even heard of it

Pretty much exclusively gaming.

Bazzite is a trash distro mass advertised by Youtube shills to people who don't know anything about Linux. There are many reasons to pass on it.

Not quite, at least, not according to this:
https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite-arch

To quote:

Bazzite-Arch is a ready-to-game Arch Linux based OCI designed for use exclusively in distrobox.

So, you wouldn't run this on its own as a full OS.

It's basically a Fedora Atomic distribution that comes pre-configured to be suitable for gaming out the box, mostly suitable for devices such as the Steam Deck or Asus ROG Ally, etc. It can be used for other things also, of course, like any distribution.

So your ascertation that it has nothing to do with arch was incorrect,

Thank you for conceding.

Yeah I'd rather build my own gaming environment in my distro of choice.

I don't need drivers and packages spoonfed to me.

Well, if you wish to believe Fedora Linux is Arch, you may do so. Believe as you need.

Having something to do with arch doesn't really qualify as "nothing to do with arch"

Your language defeats you.

I also never said bazzite was arch. I said LGBTQ+ people prefer weird arch variants- which they do.

There's not even a "gaming environment" to build, that's why it's such a joke. It just has some basic applications pre-installed which are readily available in any distros package manager, also available through Flatpak. There's no such thing as a "gaming distro" and marketing itself as such just further highlights my point that they're marketing to people who don't know any better.

The main thing to point out with Bazzite is it's immutable. This means the base system is write protected. This can make it a real pain in the ♥♥♥♥ to do intermediate updates, tweaks, or install a lot of things in the conventional way. Immutable distros are still mostly experimental for Linux and break a lot.

For anyone wanting a "gaming Linux" setup, pick a normal distro with a point release model (such as Ubuntu, Fedora, Suse, etc), make sure you get the variant of those that come with KDE out of the box (Kubuntu, Fedora KDE spin, etc), and use their included package managers to install the gaming apps you intend to use, like Steam, Lutris, etc. They'll even have a graphical browser to search for and install those apps through. Not even remotely complicated.

Installing Proton-GE, Gamescope, your preferred drivers (if they aren't there already) , Lutris and steam, as well as dependency for flatpaks (if they arent already there) is "building the environment"

It's only really a joke if your incapable of doing those simple things.
Immutable OS's are taking off right now because of SteamOS and I don't care for it much either- but for a noob it could seem enticing.

omfg... Second post for linux that brings politics or some wierd stuff under a week in OF that makes 0 sense??? That's not useful my guy...

I didn't bring the politics to linux. I'm just shining a light on them and giving people the tools to make an informed decision about which projects they support.

With this type of "information" if we take something similar then I guess "you should" or "you should not" support the Linux foundation at all? Meanwhile they are partially of the heavy lifting.

I haven't even used Gamescope anymore. It's really only useful if you want to enable FSR features. For installing GE versions of Proton, "ProtonUp" from an AppImage (download and double click) will install those. I think almost all distros are shipping with Flatpak support, certainly AppImage support. So, all you really need to do is just get Lutris and Steam.

And if you really learn the ins and outs of Lutris, it's such a useful tool, especially for older stuff.

Anyone can make any choice they want. I am just letting people know the values of bazzite when it comes to promoting ideas to the youth while using gaming as a cover.

Gamescope has a good adaptive sync feature that I like to use.
