Bazzite has been astoundingly good for me. The only games that have issues are usually those with kernel-level anti-cheat and tbh I wouldn't play those anyways if I was running Windows (although I understand that's a deal breaker for some).

Support for Bazzite is fantastic too. Kyle and the rest of the folks on Discord are amazing!

Or just use Bazzite. Already supports multiple handhelds, desktop, and you can have the same exact experience of opening into big picture like the Steamdeck if you'd like.

Fair point. At least with stock rooted as I said there's ways around it and I can pass all play integrity checks and such.

Even just being rooted on the stock Pixel rom is a fight. It's a constant cat and mouse game to pass basic and device integrity, but as of recently a lot of us have been able to pass strong integrity as well which has been nice.

Seconded.

Yeah I can back this. I switched to Bazzite about 6+ months ago after messing with Linux on the Steamdeck and I haven't looked back.

I switched to Bazzite about 1/2 a year ago and haven't looked backed. Better performance, more stable, I can do dev work that I'm used to without WSL and such.

The best part is I have absolutely 0 incentive to play games that come with a kernel-level rootkit anticheat too!

I thought Emacs was an OS? 😏

Bazzite has been amazing for me!

8 hours? Come on, we can do better than that.

A Very Brief Analysis: The Phantom Menace

Ooh good ol' Theo. The guy is quite something...

I mean I've been daily driving Linux and more recently Bazzite specifically for games and everything else without issue.

Weird. I use Bazzite which is off of Kinoite and the upgrade from 39 -> 40 was seamless.

I run PopOS on my T450s. Runs like a dream, but probably not considered 'lightweight .

Rooting your phone if possible is always a nice solution to this. BCR works great for me(along with BCR GUI). I can also still use my banking and Google wallet apps (you just need the right apps/modules)

Out of curiosity, any examples? I know for NYC people use Citymapper, but that's available for most big cities.

Aah okay that makes sense. I wouldn't mind the extra space.

If that's turned off, do you know if the game generates and caches shaders as you play? If so, does that also apply to games run outside of Steam?

Currently I'm just playing games like Hunt Showdown and Helldivers.

Yeah I saw that when I was previously running into this, but wasn't sure if it would leave performance on the table. Also, I'm curious if you could run it once, turn it off so you don't process them again, and if that would be beneficial for subsequent runs of the game even after updates (assuming not since they'd probably be invalidated).

OSRS

Performance wise it was better for almost every game I played! I'm more used to Linux because that's what I use at work, but I don't have the greatest Internet connection, so that's why the shader caches suck.
