Podman is a decent solution too, but I’m a heavy docker user and felt podman always needed special attention. DX with Docker and devcontainers as a first class citizen solves a lot of problems

It always struck me that if gaming is in the mix, why not get the distro that puts it first? Docker is less fussy than a new release Steam game so Bazzite just seems like the logical choice. I use it heedlessly for work so game mode works out well for me. If I used it as a desktop and didn’t care about gaming then bluefin all the way

Bazzite DX is the best workstation distribution hands down

At first, but it’s all pretty navigable and it really hasn’t been an issue. rpm-ostree lets you install rpms, flatpaks are great, brew is available for quick tools, and with Bazzite DX you get docker and vscode. It just feels like a computer.

I do web development mostly, but I dabble in everything. I like to work from my Macbook because it’s nicer, but I have my bazzite system available through ssh and use it as a host for docker and many other things.

Claude Code becoming my tool of choice for development, and claude remote-control is a nice way to link up several boxes to one unified interface in Claude where you can trigger devcontainers and expose the ports via cloudflared. I also have vscode’s remote tunnel service running so I can use that from anywhere, but with Claude lately I don’t feel a lot of need to use it.

If I want to do some work, I’ll just have claude code from my iPad generate a tunnel url and I can pull up the dev environment in safari to monitor as it works. it’s crazy how good it is these days!

Running the development image on my laptop, strikes me as the best OS going

I was under the impression that the open nvidia drivers couldn’t run most games, so a little surprised to see it suggested. So be wary!

Random display issues can be normal. I never encountered this though but at least for me (Nvidia RTX 4070) I see weirdness sometimes between games or if I plug in an extra monitor during a session. It gets better over time, Nvidia support is still new. Other chips are more stable but the same basic rules still apply

I dream about this setup, I have a desktop also running bazzite and it feels like too much to manage, I just want the handheld. How is it in day to day usage, stable? Is it frustrating to get it working generally?

Brew is a good way to get lower level things, and I’ve had success installing vscode and setting up devcontainers to work with podman.

At least for me, bazzites Nvidia support is pretty good now, I can’t think of a game with problems. I think you can wait it out

There’s also homebrew support, which installs packages to your home directory and is a nice way to bring common tools into the system without dealing with flatpaks i.e. `brew install rclone`. For GUI apps, flatpaks seem worth the frustration as it’s generally been more stable, and flatpaks give you some containerized niceties that feel more modern i.e. I need to tell syncthing about my mounted drive otherwise it’s outside of it’s sandbox meaning it’s not liable to dirty up my installation. I like these features, and when you bork something the remedy is usually a fairly discoverable ujust command. I’d also mention that you can also just compile the software like you traditionally would, this oftentimes works just fine as long as you keep everything in your home directory. If you need more, you can also check out Fedora Workstation, which is the parent project and is mutable in nature.

I can’t run AC: Shadows, and Diablo 4 tends to crash the graphics card on exit and I need to hard reboot. Also, sometimes the side-menu becomes visually unreadable which I assume is some compositor issue. Beyond these three things, it actually is quite stable and seems to run everything. Pretty good so far, I’m enjoying it and the immutable os makes it feels stable enough. Unlike traditional installs, when it blows up in my face I can usually bail it out with ujust.

I imagine Bazzite will stand the test of time, it’s Rick solid. My sense is that even Valve will suggest it for power users

I can’t believe how complete and totally bug-free the deck-gnome-nvidia build is. It’s every bit the steam box I always wanted. Microsoft is really in trouble that things have progressed this far.

Bazzite was a good call for me, no regrets at all. I did it primarily for GNOME
