There's an Nvidia branch of Bazzite, and it works great. I'm even surprisingly able to play Star Citizen, which is notoriously finicky.

A few months ago I got tired of waiting for the steam machine and built my own. Geekom box on sale (note: would NOT buy from them again) and then a quick hour or so to get Bazzite running. The hardest part was purchasing a thumb drive (had 3 in a row fail to deliver from amazon—that’s never happened to me before). Despite all that, Bazzite has been amazing. And for the kind of gaming I do, this little machine is more than enough. The Steam machine is likely overkill for me, honestly.

I am aware, that was my second choice!

I heard though Valve is working closely with nvidia to get steamos working, so I am holding for that one instead

Can you explain what the point of Bazzite is? I don't really understand what it adds over installing Lutris onto whatever distro you would otherwise have used
