This. Arch based distros have understood this a long time ago, most ship with no GUI for their package managers and if they ship with one they throw you to a terminal to solve anything, as it should be.
I don’t want to deal with any of that, so I run Bazzite, do flatpaks only, and use Distrobox for whatever I can’t find on the homebrew package manager.
That only holds true if you choose to download the version with Steam Game Mode, which boots directly to Steam’s UI, this version is called bazzite-deck. If you go with the no game mode version, it boots like a normal PC: to the desktop.
The non-game mode version is a solid choice as a daily driver. I use Bazzite on my main PC, I work by day and do gaming at night. Bazzite excels at both.
Are topics working?
Malibal is hilariously scummy.
Pick your spin
The day Luanti gets split screen local coop it will skyrocket.
Are there any FOSS alternatives? How do they compare ?
Cachy is just another distro for power users / enthusiasts. For people that want to tweak everything. Universal Blue spins are made for people that want their PCs to work for the user, not the other way around. They are unbrickable. Arch is a rolling distro, and thus it requires more maintenance than any other distro. If the user doesn’t want to learn everything there is to know about a Linux system, Arch based distros aren’t a good fit.
I tried Cachy, settled on Bazzite. Best decision ever.
is there an open source, decentralized alterntative to MBFC ?
I can’t find one.

What about the chat UI, is that decentralized too?
Spoiler: Stellar Blade’s main character is in fact a silent furry.
Sync on Android
Alexandrite on desktop
What’s it good for ?
With Playnite having support for ROMM, this is great news.
Thanks for clarifying!
