With the release of bazzite 2.0 and the existence of other steamOS-like distros like chimera OS, I'm just wondering if anyone is running their steam deck with a different distro than what was shipped. How does the experience stack up, do you prefer something like chimera or bazzite? Just wondering if I'm missing out by keeping the stock OS.

I was using bazzite pre 3.5 release and it was very cool. It can make sense for users that spend a lot of time in desktop mode and linux already. Though i wouldnt suggest it for everyone.

Switching back to steam os is relatively painless.
