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.

So when is the libre Arch-Game distro going to come out?

[–] skoell13@feddit.org 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I use EndeavourOS and it works quite nicely

😯👩‍🏫👀 🙇‍♀️

[–] _Nico198X_@europe.pub 2 points 1 day ago

same. it's perfection

[–] _Nico198X_@europe.pub 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

it already is. it's called SteamOS

[–] Jayb151@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wait, steam os is arch based?

[–] _Nico198X_@europe.pub 5 points 1 day ago

it is, yes

[–] AntiBullyRanger@ani.social 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

libre

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 2 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Arch already is that since all of Valve's additions go upstream

[–] AntiBullyRanger@ani.social 1 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

with 0 setup‽

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 5 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

No computer requires 0 setup. Not even the Steam Deck or a Windows PC.

ah, fellow setup purist.
Does it pass the toddler test?

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 1 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

With archinstall sure lmao

[–] AntiBullyRanger@ani.social -1 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I keep finding the opposite.

Try several kindergartens, until you have a thousand participants.

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 2 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Sure, dude. Valve is still sending all their contributions to SteamOS upstream to Arch. So if you're on Arch, Edneavour, or Cachy things are probably looking good for you. If what you care about is equipping toddlers with technology then your goals are vastly different then mine.

My argument 🧵 has always been ease of use. Nothing has come close to Bazzite GDX, but I will def. try these rec. So 🙇‍♀️

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 1 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

I would try any of the arch based flavors if you're lookin' but if Bazzite scratches that itch then dont let me stop you by any means. I usually do things the hard way anyway

[–] AntiBullyRanger@ani.social -4 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

The majority of the population doesn't

do things the hard way anyway

But again,.🙇‍♀️ 4 rec.s
