I regret that I have but a single upvote for you

life is pain

some of us just weren’t meant for greatness, i guess.

I currently use GNOME and would continue to but if it were a low spec machine, probably icewm or jwm.

y’all sure like KDE though 🤢

i am unfamiliar with osprober but if you’re installing it from the AUR, it should be as easy as creating a distrobox container with arch as its base and running the installation command(s) from there, then a single line to export the command to your base system if you want to use it outside of that container.

distrobox will give you access to the AUR and should be installable on any distro but the immutable/atomic approach might be worth looking into. I’ve been running bazzite on my personal machine and bluefin on my work machine for about a year now and it’s been great. the only snag is learning the order of operations for installing things without a reboot.

I am just one data point but both distros have been rock solid for me and half the time I don’t even realize updates had been run unless I see a new feature or something like that.

good luck on your journey!

I love Bazzite and Bluefin. I use the former on my personal machines and the latter on my work laptop. I wonder how Bazzite DX will compare to Bluefin? I’m also curious if there’s a difference between Bluefin and Bluefin DX or if they just started tacking on the extra letters recently?
