Hey folks, I just got Bazzite OS KDE up and running on my PC. Being a Linux newbie, I’d love some tips, tricks, and app suggestions if you have any. 😅 Switching from Windows has been a bit of a maze with all the distros out there, so any pointers would be awesome!

The amount of tutorials out there is overwhelming. Hopefully 🙏 you guys point me in the right direction.

Edit: That is a lot of great information. I really appreciate you guys taking your time to share your experience/advice.

    There’s no need to run a distro because you need an app that’s only available there.

    None except that you have to figure how the fuck to use distrobox.

      1. Create a distrobox with distrobox enter
      2. sudo dnf install htop
      3. distrobox-export --bin \usr\bin\htop
      4. sudo dnf install anyguiapp
      5. distrobox-export --app \usr\bin\anyguiapp

      after that you can use htop or anyguiapp like a normal command on your computer

        I’m not looking for tutorials. I was making the point that you don’t need to learn to use it. You just double click the file and you’re done.

          I should’ve guessed when you recommended ubuntu. Sorry for that.

            I didn’t recommend Ubuntu. I recommended Ubuntu-based distros.

        Yeah, the point is I don’t want to watch the tutorial. Even if I did, it’d probably all be gibberish to me.

        On Debian I just click the file and Bob’s your Uncle.
