Seemingly for the first time, the Bazzite gaming-focused Linux distro has appeared on the Steam Hardware Survey. Well done to the Bazzite team for making such an amazing distro for gaming (and now just general usage as a while too)! Been my main choice for going on a year now for my general use distro, and I haven't looked back.

I saw an interview on Youtube with the guy heading the Bazzite development. Apparently, he's a "Microsoft Linux Community Manager". What exactly is Microsoft's involvement with Bazzite?

    Uh that just might be his full time job? Plenty of Linux is used in the business world with Azure and WSL

    I see. I just started using Bazzite and Mint, and I find myself liking Bazzite more. I'd be bummed to find out they were corporate all along, like Android.

    I don’t think you need to worry about that. My understanding is Bazzite was basically created because steamOS is/was really focused on the steam deck where Bazzite was more general PC support
