I don't have much experience with Linux, but I do have some. I'm thinking of leaving Windows as I'm trying to focus more on privacy and less AI.

I tried a Bazzite bootable install, and everything seemed to work great except for one thing- the RGB on my XPG ram sticks. OpenRGB controlled everything except those sticks as they went undetectable by the software. I tried the latest experimental OpenRGB build with no improvements.

That seems to be the only incompatible bit. While annoying it's not a deal breaker. How do you feel about using bazzite on a higher end desktop for gaming and as a daily driver? I don't play any games that use kernel anticheat.

UPDATE: Installed it this morning. Went with the Gnome version. Really enjoying it so far! Still getting everything situated, but I'm a happy camper. Thanks for the help, everyone :)

I prefer Gnome's UX/UI, But Valve sponsors KDE and they collaborate, this helps KDE ship gaming related improvements faster than other desktops, so that's why I switched to KDE. IIRC, KDE had VRR 6 months faster and when Gnome got it, it required editing a text file, then a few months more for the UI and last month it was deemed not "experimental". Both are great, with different strengths. My advice is that you try and chose what works best for you.
