Even on Steam Deck itself?
I use bazzite on steam deck. The only kinda irritating thing is the game mode update changelog displays the steamos notes and not bazzite notes. It will be 99% the same for basic users and not worth switching for anyone not needing the additional nerd functionality. If it's a new installation regardless on a handheld computer then bazzite for sure especially because bazzite already accounts for many deck alternatives.
And you have to do a Bazzite update to make it go away, which is slightly annoying. I'm not sure if you can do it from the Steam UI either, although I can always SSH in.
