No, it comes with the rpm. We do not use the flatpak.

We already do this, no benefit to Bazzite but glad to see Fedora adopting it.

SteamOS also ships distrobox OOTB now, so you can use this anywhere.

The issue with them right now is there’s no update mechanism. If you use something as a system extension that depends on a library in the image, and that library gets updated, you could have an unbootable system or at the very least a non-functioning application until you can update your system extension manually.

Ideally that update mechanism needs to be a part of bootc so if your system extension is part of your boot process it can be updated ahead of time before the image is loaded.

We’ve looked at it since it’s inception and it’s something we really want, it’s just nowhere near ready yet.

I also said ublue is free to do what they want

Thank the lord we have your permission

They should be scared, we’re here to replace their 30-year failed experiment with tech that’s already successful everywhere Linux makes money.

No they have CUDA. The open driver from Nvidia just means the kernel module has an open source license. They are still the same proprietary pieces of shit that you know and love from a user space perspective.

I disagree with you fundamentally, if it wasn’t for the simple updates and stability this would not have the success that it does. The image is part of the model.

It offers a straightforward onboarding process because it’s image based. The model is part of the success.

Only on Aurora, we don’t ship that.

You don’t use the terminal to do updates, updates are automatic by default.

We also completely removed discovers ability to update OSTree. It’s never been present in a single build of Bazzite.

This is why I don’t pay attention to people that complain about toolkits. You don’t like the way it looks so you make up absolutely disingenuous points to argue about it.

Yeah, it seems there’s something going on with what’s listed here. It doesn’t match any other measurement.

You are not forgiven, your behavior was disgusting beyond all measure.

In no uncertain terms would I ever recommend Arch to a beginner, nor would I help a user behaving in the way that you did.

Do not reach out to me again on any platform.

Bazzite founder here. I started Bazzite after spending a few months helping with support on the steam deck Discord because I had already been using atomic fedora and knew the proper workarounds for people who wanted to install applications on a read-only distro like SteamOS.

Bazzite was initially an experiment to see what it would take to get SteamOS packages working in Fedora Atomic, because I knew Fedora Atomic provided a better experience for installing applications that had to be a part of the root system than SteamOS could.

Unlike SteamOS you can layer applications over the root system and they will be kept across updates instead of being removed entirely. You’re also able to spin off custom images with any changes you want through a GitHub action. You have full access to the roof file system during the build process.

I also don’t understand them

distrobox is not a vm

Let’s agree to disagree. I think it’s the single best thing to come to the desktop in the last decade and using containers as build environments has made my workflow immensely better.

Our documentation guy cooked so hard he got burnt out, please read them they’re excellent.

Legitimately if you’re a programmer and you think using a container is a pain in the ass, you should stop programming.

Source: 20 plus years software engineer, if I didn’t have containers I would go ahead and hurry along my retirement.

Bro I’m the lead developer and I’m just now seeing this, just accept you called the viral marketing wrong.

We’ve grown to the point that when I market something, I tell people not to listen to me because I’m biased.
