Upstream images vs bazzite: https://github.com/ublue-os/countme/blob/main/growth_upstream_with_bazzite.svg
My prediction: bazzite may have more installs than Fedora KDE by the end of the year.

shut up.
it’s an easy and straight forward introduction to linux OR simply an easy to install distro for people who simply want to game and not tinker.
I have my main machine as a dual partition. my main daily driver is FreeBSD. for gaming my other partition is Bazzite and that’s all it’s for. gaming. I don’t want to install fedora and do more tinkering. I just need a distro that I install and forget about so I can open steam and play something. that’s it. Bazzite achieves that for me.
I daily drive bazzite
I just treat it like an atomic distro that happens to be good for gaming
I use it for development and other general use cases
I can use disposable distroboxes without worrying about updating or breaking my base system it’s nice
Yup! I’ve been running Linux on my machines in some way or another for 20 years. I’ve worked as a systems administrator and in ops teams. So I’m not a Linux beginner, and I’m not afraid of a shell.
But I play steam games online with friends. I had a Windows 10 PC in my house specifically to be the gaming PC, I would turn it on, play a game, then turn it off. I didn’t do anything else with the machine, but when I was running it I wasn’t at work, I wasn’t tinkering, I was relaxing.
So anyway Microsoft botched Windows 11, big surprise, and people were talking about the Linux gaming revolution, and I was like “Hot Damn, if there’s a Linux gaming revolution I want to be part of it!”, so I installed Bazzite and… yup. I’m part of it.
I haven’t had a single issue since, at least with my machine and the games my friends play. I’ve been able to basically treat the system like it’s a console. I boot it, navigate it with a controller, then I turn it off. Delightful!
So thanks to everyone involved in making it a great experience!
Exactly. I do the same thing.
I even put bazzite with KDE on my mothers computer because she started complaining about windows being slow and seeing ads on her start menu. My mother isn’t very tech saavy, but bazzite was perfect for her use case and it just works. So far no complaints at all in about 6 months.
