Staff criticized a very specific thing, not a vibe: the approach for installing software.
You don’t really need to use the terminal at all if you just stick with the software that’s available in flatpak / bazaar. If you had to use the terminal then that means you most likely wanted to install software / tweak stuff outside of the intended channels.
I don’t think Bazzite is very suitable as an all-purpose distro or a distro for people who want to tweak or use the terminal much, it was originally designed as a SteamOS distro (before Valve made available their own SteamOS image), intended to be installed in Steam Deck / Steam Box style devices. I use it in a living room PC for gaming and watching videos and it works perfectly for this usecase. For desktop / laptop I run a different Linux distro.
I see I misunderstood what Staff said, thanks.
Yeah, I think you’re right. Maybe bazzite isn’t for me. I just have that tinker itch every now and then.
And hey, a live service game I’m playing recently had a massive hack that many people affected had to reinstall their OS just for self assurance. That somehow also could affect people running Linux. So I might as well hop to another distro this weekend.
