Any reason you chose Bazzite for your homelab distro? First I've heard of someone doing that!

    At the start I just wanted a desktop machine that runs Steam through sunshine/moonlight so hardware support and gaming stuff such was very important.

    My homelab used to run on my laptop when it could all fit within a couple 100s of GB and I was the only user but moving it was tricky. Since I'm a programmer I'm not afraid of this stuff so I just spent the hours to figure out one problem at a time.

    I ended up figuring out adding HDD whitelist in SELinux, make it accessible in podman, manually edit fstab because tools didn't work, systemd service for startup, logging in automatically where I already forgot everything and would have not had to do any of this on a bog standard Ubuntu server.

    Respect! I too often take it for granted that it's a privilege for my gaming rig and my homelab server to be separate boxes.

    My server is Almalinux, my laptop is Mint, and my gaming rig is Nobara. But if I had to consolidate everything in to one machine, I'd pick Nobara.

    Wouldn't an immutable OS be overall a pretty good idea for a stable server?

    I honestly don't know a ton about immutable distros other than that they let you front-load some difficulty in getting things set up in exchange for making it harder to break. I was just surprised that the distro of choice was Bazzite, since its target audience seems to be gamers.
