I’ve never encountered any of the issues you’ve talked about here, and every deck-verified game has worked on my Legion Go. Often better, as many “Playable” titles only have marks deducted for small text, which looks fine at 2560*1600.

As for the lesser used distro, I can understand where that creates issues. However, due to it’s immutability, Bazzite is a consistent target to support with no real variations in system packages.
