  • Seconded. I recently moved my gaming rig from Nobara to Bazzite because this machine is only occasionally booted, and I don’t want to spend the little time I have available for gaming doing maintenance instead. Except from a mounting error for my secondary drive that I made (bc after 20+ years on Linux I still can’t be arsed enough to learn how to fstab), I was in Cyberpunk 2077 in less than 5 minutes.

    Pros:

    • Easy setup, everything works out of the box
    • A lot of preinstalled gaming-related packages and tweaks, plus a lot of QOL improvements over Silverblue/Kinoite
    • Ready to game as soon as it’s installed
    • No updates, no maintenance! Full system images are downloaded and installed in the background and are applied at reboot.
    • Immutable so “impossible” to fuck up.
    • uBlue projects are not distros but a delivery system, all the work is actually done by Fedora. No risk associated with a single-maintainer project like Nobara.

    Cons:

    • Immutable so “impossible” to fuck up.

    Pro tip: don’t keep your Steam games on a Windows partition. They won’t launch.
