I know Bazzite is the deck build for HTPC, and is in testing right now for the next updates. There really isn’t any difference between in Bazzite or SteamOS in my understanding. Any advantages to change over I am missing?

    Definitely agree, particularly when it comes to security.

    Valve takes a snapshot of Arch repos, frozen in time. They then spend months developing on top of this version. And by the time it’s released, it’s multiple months out of date. They don’t pull in security updates; Arch is a rolling release, they don’t backport fixes like Debian or Fedora does.

      Yeah. I feel like SteamOS users are basically just getting Pierre-Loup Griffais’ last successful Arch update. Bazzite feels more fleshed out to me, but to each their own.
