Meanwhile PikaOS is based on Debian and gaming focused, but not immutable, if only you could combine them somehow. I am struggling to think of any other distros in the immutable gaming space besides Bazzite and SteamOS. Is Holo still a thing? There used to be a few other SteamOS clones out there, I remember ChimeraOS, not sure if it is/was immutable but you never really hear about it anymore.

    ChimeraOS is immutable and still alive. Bazzite with gaming mode ended up taking a lot of users from them(myself included).

    For VanillaOS you could modify the image used just like Bazzite to get the packages and configuration that you want. I'm just not sure if there is enough of a desire to have something Debian based compared to what is offered by Bazzite.
