Want to try something a little different? Bazzite was recently announced as a custom Fedora 38-based Linux image designed to bring the best Linux gaming to PCs and Steam Deck.

      It’s based on Silverblue instead of Workstation and has very different features, such as Waydroid set up out of the box, they also have a Steam Deck variant that more closely matches the SteamOS experience

      I asked the same question when this was posted elsewhere, and the answer that I received is that it is based on the immutable os spin of Fedora, so this is immutable as well.

    Saw something about this days ago and couldn’t find it. Definitely saving this post so I do not forget what this distro is called, again. Definitely wanna try this out via dual boot or VM in the future on a more powerful device than my current desktop and laptop.

    Be interesting to see what Steam Deck Distribution alternatives are going to be popping up.

    Seeing a few interesting feature in this project, I may have to dig out my other desktop to attempt to make my own SteamBox.

      Many steam deck users report that using moonlight as a client works great with nvidia hosts. It utilises nvidia gamestream protocol which is built into the nvidia drivers on Windows/Linux, basically removing the need to mess around with encoder settings.

          Sadly I’ve not got a rig to test it and report back, it’s all AMD linux rigs here and my old hardware steam link has been relegated to a drawer since I got my deck. Greenlight (Xbox series X) and chiaki (PS5) also suffer from the frame pacing issues you mentioned (just an FYI for anyone who may be interested).
