Bazzite feels so close to feature complete, but there are still corners I stub my toes on.

I have to care about whatever Wayland is, because RustDesk on Bazzite fights me (it's my backup for remoting to fix a machine when moonlight or Steam Link is misbehaving), and I miss Steam PCVR hosting, but both of those are edge cases for most folks and I can forego on most systems.

Meanwhile, the lean, light, singularly focused environment is great and I really do like not having to bother with Windows. I never want Edge to barge in on my day again. I will never subscribe to OneDrive. I don't want an AI companion modem Bonzai Buddy to "help" me remember anything, and memorize my SSN or Birthday along the way.
