I convinced my teenage son to install bazzite on his gaming laptop to avoid Windows 11 and he likes it!

The best part: he wanted some game and worked his way through using Wine and Bottle to make it work, all by himself. He told me he feels “a bit like a hacker” now.

Can’t tell you how proud this made me.

    no joke, if I’m having issues with a fussy launcher I will just add the damn thing to steam and force run through proton experimental.

    it tends to work like 7/10 times. but I typically only do that for launchers that are very problematic. as a last ditch effort.

      Run flatpak update. Helped for me. You need to run this after every time that your GPU driver updated.
