SteamOS alternative Bazzite v2.2 out now with lots of enhancements
Need something similar to SteamOS for your desktop or handhelds like the Steam Deck? The latest release of Bazzite with version 2.2 sounds like it just keeps getting better.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The 2.2 release includes some big changes like a new modified fsync kernel with enhanced hardware support, HDR and more.
You also get Nintendo HID support, a Webapp Manager, Pods as a default feature which is great for managing distrobox/containers, improvements to Steam Deck support, patches to Gamescope pulled in from ChimeraOS and tons of tweaks to both the GNOME and KDE desktop environments available.
Despite this project also being image-based, you are able to install any Fedora package straight from the command line.
These packages will persist across updates (So go ahead and install that obscure VPN software you spent an hour trying to get working in SteamOS).
Additionally, Bazzite is updated multiple times a week with packages from upstream Fedora, giving you the best possible performance and latest features - all on a stable base.
Bazzite ships with the latest Linux kernel and SELinux enabled by default with full support for secure boot (Run ujust enroll-secure-boot-key and enter the password ublue-os if prompted to enroll our key) and disk encryption, making this a sensible solution for general computing.
