Installed Bazzite this weekend, most the games I’ve tested run fine and the OS is quite pretty. Microsoft forcing everyone to Spware OS after Steam released several versions or Proton are the one-two punch that will help tons of people move to Linux. 🐧
About to install it on my new rig. I am using Mint, which is fantastic and it stays on my other PC, just wanted to try the nice baked in gaming features.
Bazzite is amazing. Pretty much all Ublue based distros have been the most painless Linux experience I’ve had in years. The biggest problem I think most users have is the Dominance of Nvidia graphics hardware. Nvidia does “work” but it’s much more unstable than the much more stable AMD driver. I bought an AMD 7800xt and I’m pretty much problem free now.
Since I have so many Nvidia cards I’m regularly testing Nvidia under Bazzite on a spare 2070super. It’s impressive but it’s not ready for average users.

For the curious I’ve found bazzite to be the best and easiest Linux distro for gaming
nobara is looking good too for games ;-)
I didn’t like it as much personally

Does Bazzite (or any other distro) support HDR?
According to their page it does. Haven’t tested myself tho
