It’s been a while since I checked out fedora atomic (and I didn’t quite understand it then) is bazzite just a container for Linux games? Is that why it’s called cross platform?
I wonder how well it performs on more limited hardware. I’d imagine it would be more performant to compile programs from source on hardware with less headroom.
It could be a compromise between performance and ease of use. But if someone is using fedora atomic wouldn’t they need a decent amount of knowledge already?
I think it’s still exciting and I hope it works well.

Well that really wouldn’t be utilizing containers correctly in that case. As really every noob friendly distro is about as capable. Like Manjaro comes pre-installed with steam and one can enable the Nvidia drivers by clicking the correct option in the settings to auto-detect the hardware and install any proprietary drivers.
I think the real benefit of this judging by the GitHub page is that you could never update the apps directly and instead just update the container image for every device you own so that they all work the same way. Which is a great concept but is not very noob friendly. Unless the method for pulling new containers is automated somehow.
It still seems like a similar disadvantages to using flat packs on hardware with less headroom but I could be wrong.
I only have only gaming PC, and the other devices in my house all serve discreet functions but they can still stream the games from my gaming PC. So I wouldn’t want them to share the same os image. Ultimately this doesn’t seem for me but I do like the implications.

Anyone here have experience gaming with Bazzite?
I just installed it last night on my amd cpu/gpu rig. I can not get gaming mode working out of the box. It locks up and reboots. Their GitHub has an open issue with someone else having the same issue. Other than that, Straight forward gnome fedora setup. Install was quick. Hopefully I can figure out gaming mode.

I’ve been using it for a few months. After ubuntu and arch, I’m sold. Everything just works.
