If you’re looking for a desktop version of SteamOS and are used to using Windows, your best bet is likely Bazzite with the KDE desktop environment. There are mixed feelings among Linux users about immutable distros, (many of the more advanced users feel it is too limiting), but there’s no denying the Bazzite is the most straightforward way to get things like Nvidia drivers and HDR.

I love bazzite on my gaming rig, does what it says on the box, and for the gaming rig I just want a turn key, no faffing, coz it's game time, not work time, and this is what bazzite delivers.

Awesome. Thank you .

Is it niche or does it have a pretty big community for trouble shooting?

It has a decent community, yes. It’s basically the go-to gaming distro for many people.

Isn't steam os immutable anyways? They wouldn't be waiting for much
