    Long time Debian user, short time Arch user, even shorter Fedora user.

    I Switched a few devices over to Bazzite this year, and it’s genuinely game changing. A distro that just works, and stops me from breaking core system stability? But also allows me to install stuff using rpm-ostree and add other distros using distro shelf?

    Don’t get me wrong I love compiling from source on Arch, but god damnit, sometimes I need an OS with guard rails, and it won’t be Windows or MacOS for damn sure.

    This isn’t your average Glupshitto Linux

      You act like arch is gentoo :P compiling on arch is like a blue moon event. You complie on arch about as much as you would on fedora.

      Exactly this.

      I am likewise a long time Debian user, different flavors, on and off. Played with Arch a little. Never touched fedora.

      Installed Bluefin on my main laptop almost a year ago, haven’t looked back. The stability is exactly what I was looking for. It just works, and protects me from myself.

      But still my proxmox is full of mostly Debian servers, I still value a traditional install.

      But you better believe that when my buddy asked for help with Windows 10 EOL, one of the options I gave him was Linux. He was curious, we went over pros and cons, now he’s running Bluefin too.
