FYI: It’s often overlooked but the umbrella project of popular gaming distribution is Universal Blue and Bazzite is merely one of three flavors: https://universal-blue.org/#images

I’m really not a fan of brew so I went with Kinoite instead. I’m using Distrobox (layered) and flatpaks to install applications. It’s been working fine for me.

OP

Aurora, Bazzite, etc. are solid options for regular users because they come with convenience stuff out of the box (full Flathub access, for example, last I checked Fedora doesn’t do it).

fedora is still clinging to their curated and much smaller flatpak repo, but it’s easy enough to disable theirs and add flathub.

but yea, having common drivers configured ’out of the box’ is a huge bonus that most derivatives have.

i’ve been doing a lot of testing here on a newer system to see what works best on it. even debian is easier to add proper intel alchemist support than fedora.
