[–] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 1 point 5 months ago (1 child) Bazzite is super easy to use and sets everything up for you. I don't like using it because it doesn't allow you to mess with your computer as much as I like to, but that makes it perfect for normal people. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 child) There are very, very few things that Bazzite prevents you from doing. Usually they just have an alternative approach (e.g. in a Distrobox) to ensure the stability of the system. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 0 points 5 months ago (1 child) I mean it doesn't allow you to mess with your computer at easily as I like to. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 1 point 5 months ago (1 child) Do you have anything concrete in mind?

Your criticism seems to instead be "I can't use the tooling and processes I already know", which again is fair, but definitely a separate issue. You're going to have the same issue with any distribution that uses a different package manager, and it wouldn't be fair to e.g. Alpine to say "it makes it harder to mess with my system since I can't use apt or dnf". permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 1 point 5 months ago Now I'm on Arch, where learning is fun permalink fedilink source parent
