The desktop version of Bazzite is such a hidden gem in the Linux scene. Polished, fast, and no fuss. I rate it the best distro by a good margin, and I have tried many many distros.

How are you dealing with the immutable side of things? Was it easy to get your head around?

Not seen this done manually before. Neat idea!

If you migrate to it, I promise we’ll shut up.

I got burned by something like this on Manjaro when a rolling update completely borked my graphics card. The devs reacted in a similar way and it made me realise that my priority is stability over bleeding edge and tinkering.

On that day I moved to Fedora. Stable as hell, no fuss. My main OS should just work and not kill itself.

I still love it but jumped over to Bazzite Gnome recently, which is like Fedora with a few bells on top, coupled with having a read-only root-filesystem (stability, man!). It also comes with distrobox, which will let you run arch natively in a container if you need the AUR.

This is the correct answer. My preference is the GNOME version. Almost all my games just work out of the box.

They did it with whips, Rimmer. Massive, massive whips.

Damn straight. Another reason not to buy a pi.

1. Go into your BIOS and disable Wake On Lan (WOL).

2. Boot Windows, start Device Manager, right click your network card (probably Intel I217-V) and disable all WOL settings there too.

3. Completely power down the PC (don’t just reboot) and then try booting Linux.
