Bazzite sees a massive jolt in installs in late June and early July, catapulting it to over 86k active devices. It has doubled the number of active devices since November. (thelemmy.club)

Upstream images vs bazzite: https://github.com/ublue-os/countme/blob/main/growth_upstream_with_bazzite.svg

My prediction: bazzite may have more installs than Fedora KDE by the end of the year.

I just swapped my steam deck to bazzite :p

Lol. Do you miss out on all the shader pre caching by doing that? I've played the same game on my steam deck with shader pre caching and without, and there's a pretty noticeable difference in gameplay quality.

No steam still downloads the precache info, at least I've seen it show up the same way in the downloads window in gamescope.

Well that's surprising and cool.
