Bazzite Postmortem

It seems that Bazzite issues with hubris / big egos is beyond what I thought.

If half of that is true, they have a huge governance problem at hand.

    I currently run a mix of Ubuntu, fedora and bazzite machines at home and by far my favorite is bazzite. I may be a bit different as I work with containers, docker and k8s every day but it did take a little for it all to “click” for me. Once it did I’ve had no issues running anything with bazzite. On the other hand the number of hours I’ve spent chasing down issues on the Ubuntu machines due to dependency conflicts is embarrassing. Those issues simply do not happen with bazzite and the time I’ve spent learning the new mentality has been more enjoyable and significantly less than fixing problems on either distro. The atomicity and forcing isolation using containers is a paradigm shift, looking at is as workarounds, distro limits and Mcgyvering sort of misses the forest for the trees, but I get that its not for everyone

      I’m enjoying bazzite myself as it fits my needs and just use distrobox to run an Ubuntu and Fedora container to cover most of the bases. I just don’t like to look at OSs through any rose tinted sunglasses just because I like the thing. So many people are learning that the hard way with windows right now. There are plenty of use cases where you’d set yourself up for better success and ease of use looking at a different distro than you would trying to work around Bazzite. I’m just not gonna shill for Bazzite as a distro fit for everything because it’s not.
