Dawid is a tech youtuber that usually reviews random hardware and techy things, and he just made a video about his experience switching to Linux.

TL;DR: He liked it and will keep Bazzite on his personal computer.

All those fancy sounding distros and here I am, with the ol' Debian.

I know a guy that has been running Debian Unstable since at least '98

I'm not using Cachy, just plain Arch. I was using Arch before gaming really took off with Proton. 😅 Loving it now though!

Heh, I was just joking m8, Yeah proton is a game changer.

Bazzite works better as an appliance/ gaming PC.

But I still enjoy it more than Nobaro.

Its not locked down like Bazzite, so if ya need to do something to the OS, you can

On bazzite, you also can. It just works a bit different because it's an atomic distro
