    +1 for Kvaesitso. It does some things a little differently so it may take some getting used to, but it makes its own internal kind of sense. Once you get your head around it, it’s hard to go back. Has app category support, and my favourite part is that apps can be assigned to more than one category.

    Been using it for quite a while now, landed on it after distro hopping between openSUSE, Arch* and some other stuff. Linux in general has improved by leaps and bounds since the last time I tried it, but Bazzite is by far the most “just works” distro I’ve tried. It’s Fedora Kinoite based, so there’s a lot of support out there, but bear in mind that it’s atomic and immutable, which functionally means that making changes to system files and installing random .RPMs from say, GitHub won’t work the way you might think (but you probably shouldn’t be doing that anyway). You need to do things the Bazzite/Kinoite way as opposed to the Fedora way. Similar, but not the same. This means Flatpak, AppImage, containerised everything. Podman instead of Docker (functions more or less the same though). But you only really run into those issues if you’re trying to do weird shit like me.

    As a daily it’s pretty damn slick. I run AMD GPUs wherever I can (my main rig is an RX6650XT) and haven’t run into a graphics driver issue at all.
