minus-squareAkip@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up12·25 days agoI kinda wished you were able to back up your claims. The Steam deck can install flatpacks through discover just fine. Bazzite doesn’t support the 64GB version of the deck. It’s the version I own. I run a rebased kionite to bazzite on my desktop pc, so its not like I hate Bazzite, I love it. All in all not a very sensible recommendation, in my opinion the risk of bricking far outweigh the aesthetic appeal to run Wayland apps.
