Please share an example podcast title & author.

I would love to see the OS share. I bet us Linux users are all over it, since right now it is the only tool we can use to do all of that in the same place and easily.

Actually, it’s your ultimate goal. You said you want her PC to not break. And you want to accomplish it by learning and then fixing it yourself. Well, I’m here trying to help you diagnose the issue & possible solutions.

I was trying to collaborate with you. Help me help you.

To answer your question, Bazzite and all other diestros developed by Universal Blue project are all downstream modifications of the Fedora Silverblue base image, which in turn is downstream of Fedora itself.

If you want to use the closest thing to Bazzite but you don’t want it to be focused on gaming, you could go for Aurora or Bluefin (both Universal Blue distros).

But if the issues she’s having are related to GPU stuff, you should use the same hardware and compositor (valve’s gamescope/KDE plasma kwin/ gnome mutter) which depends on the distro and variant you pick.

If you could tell us the issues she’s having, we could be of greater help.

keep her PC from breaking all the time

How did she manage to break Bazzite?

It would be useful if you could compare it to current FOSS alternatives. I mean, why this instead of say… Ironcalc, collabora, etc.

They already have a badge for that.

How does it compare (as it is right now) to other open source games similar to Minecraft ?

I’m so eager to get this. So many improvements.

I wouldn’t give them a dime even if it meant playing my favorite series’ sequel. I don’t like the people behind it, I don’t like how they think, I don’t like what they envision for the industry, and I don’t want to contribute in any measure to any of that ever happening.

Epic is the store where I redeem games I will never play.

It will depend on how upstream (Fedora Silverblue) implements it. From my understanding, it will straight up replace it, and remove SDDM.

KDE Linux will probably have it first.

Edit: nevermind. https://invent.kde.org/kde-linux/kde-linux/-/merge_requests/350

My biggest issue: no support for rdp

Pet peeve: In immutable distros you can’t change the background image… and I happen to strongly dislike Aurora’s artwork. I run Aurora on my work laptop, and my login screen looks like some kind of a bizarre childish acid trip. Embarrassing to say the least, but the distro itself is top notch.

In Bazzite it’s usually between same day and 24 hours, since the build process is fully automated.

I agree 100%. Gnome is gorgeous. I switched to KDE because they get gaming related features first, I assume because of the Valve collab.

You won’t lose it. They’ll just turn it off by default for new users.

That’s exactly what’s happening.

In my opinion, it’s either Bazzite or CachyOS.

I had the same experience. Bazzite 41 or 42 (can’t remember) fixed it for me.

I hope someone (with the will & the means) makes a fork without AI.
