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.

You can write your own systemd services and you can customize your Plasma using panel colorizer. You can go a bit further and rpm-ostree install kvantum and get even more ricing freedom. You can't however make it use other init system or other DE/WM. It's still quite good for what it is.

    You're AFAIK correct on the bold part. But definitely not on the strike-through part. You're probably only limited by your creativity and the effort you're willing to put into it:

    Well they basically forked Bazzite DX image and customized that... The hyprland fork author stopped maintaining it 8 months ago so it's not gonna work anymore with any recent Bazzite versions. So what they did is how Bazzite itself was created in the first place - by forking Fedora Atomic image and customizing it. I wouldn't really count this as "Bazzite supports other DE/WM", but yeah, if someone decided to go this far and make a fork like this then great, you can use it and hope they'll keep maintaining it.
