I think it’s account linked, not device linked.

Just know, it taken me three attempts at Nix, my first 2 lasting a day to a week and my last lasting a month. It’s NOT something you’re going to jump into without a LOT of learning and googling. Try it as an experiment on something you do not depend upon.
I use Kinoite over silverblue and other Fedora versions simply because of the desktop. I choose Fedora atomic over other immutable distros because I simply think it’s the easiest/most convenient. VanillaOS might be pretty good, but from what I can tell it’s on an Ubuntu/Debian update schedule which isn’t what I want. I tried NixOS but it’s complexity just wasn’t appealing.
I use Bazzite over Kinoite because it has all of the tweaks I want, honestly the amount of “bloat” isn’t as crazy as you’d imagine.
I don’t have any resources about distrobox unfortunately, but I’m sure they’re around.
Hi! I’ve been using Fedora Kinoite (and now Bazzite Desktop) for about a year.
I’d say bazzite desktop would be a good fit for you if you want to give an immutable desktop a try. It automatically sets up an arch distrobox for steam and lutris, it even has one click installers for things like oversteer in the post-install welcome screen, it auto-updates and is generally just quite a nice improvement on based Fedora Kinoite.
Immutable distros ARE used differently, you will mostly use flatpaks for basic apps (Although a lot of people do that anyway), but any traditional packages you want to install will be done in distrobox. You CAN overlay packages to the base system, but it should be seen as a last resort.
Let me know if you have any questions :)
Yes.
Silver blue and Kinoite are the same thing but immutable.
I’ve used Fedora kinoite for at least a year now, it’s pretty good
Gaming on the VM’s isn’t really feasible. I just did this for fun.
It should be a link to an Imgur video, maybe try looking on web?
I like the idea too, came to me when I was setting up VM’s in class. I think it’s a cool idea, I’m going to keep experimenting with the possibilities.
Opposite for KDE. Wayland supports overscan, Xorg does not.
It’s “technically” both. Ubuntu called their themeing Unity because that’s the desktop it’s supposed to emulate the style of.
I know someone who uses bazzite-deck for such a purpose, it works well.
Bazzite’s great! I’ve been following it closely for about a year now and it’s crazy how good it’s gotten. I currently run the Desktop version on my PC, and have tried the Deck version in the past. It’s great, a lot more capable than SteamOS imo.
It does, but only on charge.
I appreciate gaming on linux taking the command I made to preconfigure Vinegar from my reddit post without so much as linking it.
This feels like a step back from what we currently have.
