Yeah I use bazzite as a general desktop distro. It’s incredibly stable and the atomic nature really has grown on me.

Bazzite is what I’m considering.
Any other feedback or tips you’d offer? Any areas you had to spend more time? Anything thay surprised you (good or bad?)

If you’re coming from something like windows or non atomic distros, there is a learning curve. Just be aware that you should not install packages manually. You can’t simply do something like: sudo apt install package
There is an app store where you can install probably 95% of what youd need (bazaar), start there and if it isn’t there you can spin up a distrobox.
I do dev work, so I have a dedicated box with Ubuntu that I have my build tools and vscode installed on.
This is really nice because it allows you to run experiments without nuking your main distro, it just feels really weird at first to be running most things containerized.
They do have recipes for common things if it needs to run on the host, like I have something added for controlling AMD GPU fan speeds/power profile.

Cool. Thanks for the input.
I ran Ubuntu as my main pc OS for a few years and also ran a few different distros in college. But that was a long time ago now hahaha.
