      Interestingly “Bazzi” means “game” in Farsi 🤷‍♂️

      ‘Spins’ on Fedora Silverblue had -for some time- been following a naming scheme that involved picking the name of a blue mineral that ended on “ite”. We see this in for example its KDE-spin Fedora Kinoite -which (inadvertently) happens to be the one starting this trend- and the unofficial spins of Vauxite (Xfce), Sodalite (Pantheon) and thus Bazzite (Gaming/Steam Deck). However, the official Sway-spin (Fedora Sericea) and the upcoming Budgie-spin (Fedora Onyx) don’t quite follow this naming scheme 😅.

      Yes, ideally a naming scheme that’s a lot more descriptive would be awesome; like say Fedora Atomic GNOME or Fedora Atomic KDE etc.
