I have Bazzite running my Legion Go. The experience is so much better in its Steam Deck like frontend than the Windows 11/Legion App combo. And the desktop mode makes it a fully functioning desktop PC as well, if it is needed. All in all one of the smoothest experiences in terms of switching to Bazzite.
I can't recommend Bazzite (or one of its related distros Bluefin or Aurora) enough as a daily driver OS on your desktop and laptop. I dropped Windows this year and couldn't be happier about it.
As I mentioned in another comment, I recently switched from EndeavourOS to Bazzite on my laptop, and it has been amazing. I've only scratched the surface with regards to understanding the ins and outs of ostree, but I can say that so far I really like it. I'm all in on immutable, I think the whole idea is awesome.
I'm also loving immutable. It took me a while to get the hang of it, though. And it can be confusing to someone who doesn't know anything about Linux if they read instructions online for a different distro.
I started on Bazzite, but later installed Aurora instead. I then rebased back to Bazzite for a while because I thought it would help with a very specific piece of software. I have since rebased back to Aurora, hopefully for good. But I love how easy it is to rebase.
I haven't looked into rebasing yet... Is it really just as easy as entering the command and rebooting?
Yep, it's crazy how easy it is.
