Never thought I'd see someone suggest something based on fedora as the go-to, but here we are. Look forward to their progress.

    I spent way too long trying to install Bazzite and base Fedora. The install process is pretty much broken if you don't want to just wipe your drive and give the whole thing to Fedora.

    The automatic partitioning would refuse to see free space as available space, one manual partitioning option would create the wrong kind of btrfs volume, the other manual one did work but had no guidance on which partitions Fedora wanted, and the actual install would fail deployment because the EFI partition wasn't empty.

    Say what you will about Debian distros, but at least you can install them.

    I thought everyone had abandoned RedHat everything ages ago. I assumed bazzite etc were all Debian or arch based.

    for me Fedora Workstation installed fine, even when dual-booting (you have to “shrink” the Windows partition first) and it works great for me. The only slightly annoying thing is that many guides and how-tos use a debian based distro vs red hat/fedora based one (apt vs dnf, .deb vs .rpm)
