Hey folks, I just got Bazzite OS KDE up and running on my PC. Being a Linux newbie, I’d love some tips, tricks, and app suggestions if you have any. 😅 Switching from Windows has been a bit of a maze with all the distros out there, so any pointers would be awesome!

The amount of tutorials out there is overwhelming. Hopefully 🙏 you guys point me in the right direction.

Edit: That is a lot of great information. I really appreciate you guys taking your time to share your experience/advice.

    Bazzite is great but gaming is also great on any distro.

    Alternatively there are lots of gaming focused distros. Garuda, Chimera, Nobara, etc.

    The difference between them will mostly be the “out of box experience”, what software comes pre-installed, and what package manager is used.

    I recommended Debian or Ubuntu based distros if you plan to use anything else, as if the dev releases software outside of Flatpak, it’s usually a .deb file.

    Make sure you have GearLever for appimages.
