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've installed it after seeing this post.

Honestly I don't regret it and there is nothing to miss from SteamOS. Also I like the idea that Bazzite aims to support home theaters as well as other PC-based handheld consoles.

Feature wise - it's awesome. <3

Bazzite simply kills the argument "Steam Deck is better than any other handheld with Windows because of SteamOS features". Thanks to Bazzite, SteamOS is "available" for more than Steam Deck.
