If Linus were to visit Mount Everest, he’d reach base camp, spend the next day criticizing the sherpas, calling them foolish for taking the well-established path, and insisting that a direct line to the summit is obviously the best option.
Bazite has solid onboarding, hardware support (including Nvidia and AMD), and, dare I say, even printer support. All things he complains about in this video. But then again, what do I know? I’m just a sherpa.
Linus is such an insufferable tool. Let him stay on Windows.
You know, for a guy named after Linux, he sure is annoying
After the situation with his former employee (i forget her name) coming out and exposing how toxic of a work environment that company is, i completely stopped watching (not that i was a regular viewer before) and do not give their vids the slightest bit of my time
Madison I think
This guy has such a punchable face.

Most of these people probably only know of Linux from memes about needing a PHD to install a web browser.
And Linus has a tendency to feed into that misunderstanding instead of fixing it

I would expect LTT to do the bare minimum of research. There are a lot of videos on youtube talking about Bazzite as a great option to install SteamOS on the desktop that i’m sure “Joey Mainstream” could’ve seen

He just needs more of that Honey dosh to calm down with
Dude, if you put in a nvidia card and the only thong you see is a glitchy mess, I wouldn’t call that solid support
The glitchy mess is with SteamOS 3, the post is saying Bazzite has solid Nvidia support.
I just started watching the video and… I do agree, but worth adressing, isn’t it? Majority of desktop computers do have nvidia gpu after all.
I do wish nvidia would get their shit together, I am dualbooting with win10 and arch (kde/wayland/nvidia), with preference on arch. But man, when their shit breaks it’s dire. My work laptop with amdgpu works so much better… but I can’t game on that system, can I x) (edit: also, shhh, SHHHHHH. games work, but I shouldn’t)
edit: done watching, as far as I can tell (caveat: I am slightly beer’d up) nvidia issues didn’t come up. Not that they’re not a thing, … are we commenting on the same video?
I have dual boot available (win10 - bazzite/gnome/nvidia) and haven’t had to boot the win10 partition since the first week I set up the bazzite one.
I have very few problems, just intermittent weird graphics glitches after waking from suspend. Occasionally for whatever reason the 2 monitors I have plugged into the RTX 4070 will rapidly flip between joined (ie two separate displays) to mirroring display 1 on display 2, and sometimes flashing a black screen on display 2. The 3rd screen plugged into the mobo rarely gets involved in whatever is going on.
I think that’s possibly a Wayland / nVidia thing but is extremely rare to happen on a fresh boot so has been pretty easy to workaround.
The only Windows thing I miss is the VoiceMeeter audio mixing app from VB-Audio which was far superior to anything i’ve found so far that I can get working on bazzite. One thing about the linux audio that really annoys me is how each time some audio plays - eg every next youtube video its on a new audio stream and ignores the previous volume level I had set. But very first world problems :)
Sorry to hear that. My 1080 works just fine and I use it daily, but that’s using the legacy navidia drivers. I assumed the newer cards with the newer driver would be in a better state. What card do you have?
