Anyone here using this on a PC? Thinking about sticking it on my MS-A1 but I'm still researching - I believe frame gen on Nvidia GPUs is still an issue and I don't know about oculink support yet. I'd like to use it for basic browsing and general day to day admin stuff too, and I know Bazzite has a desktop interface available, but I'd like to know a bit more about it from folk who use it; without resorting to the cauldron of ass-hattery known as Reddit. For instance I'm led to believe it's immutable nature and containerised apps make it much more secure than Windows, so I'd like to confirm this, as I'm attracted to the idea of moving away from Windows without paying the gamer penalty. Also, is there support for VPNs like NORD, Surfshark or Express? Cheers
I'm on the fence about installing this on a little mini ITX box I built up with various spare bits. It looks like a nice idea, but at the same time I could just be lazy and unadventurous and install Windows and run steam in big picture mode... Have you tried it yet?
I'm intrigued, this is new to me thanks. I have an ITX box that is about to be repurposed and this might be an interesting experiment to try.
Have i used Bazzite specifically? no. Immutable can be a pain in the rectum. As [based on my experiences] any and all updates to base system packages requires a restart [to load the new immutable image with the updated packages]. I can see its utility for VMs or 'appliances' but would I want to run one as my main desktop? not sure. That just sounds like flatpak, which is pretty standard now for app distribution [unless you're ooboo/canonical and just have to be special]. The sandboxing nature is mostly fine, but iirc can still causes problems [though specific examples elude me]. I mean there's general linux support for the first 2, though surfshark seems to require their stupid app thing which might or might not work, sponsordebyNORDVPN can be done with the stupid app or using more native **** like openvpn and/or networkmanager https://nordvpn.com/blog/setup-linux-vpn/?msockid=30038d84695f60402bb49974688a6119 https://support.nordvpn.com/hc/en-u...7-Connecting-to-NordVPN-Linux-Network-Manager https://surfshark.com/download/linux
