Hello all,

I posted recently here asking for advice switching to Linux from Windows, and wow there was a lot of really great advice.

I’m mostly writing here to thank everyone in this community for taking the time, it was a world of help and I’ve managed to get myself setup with very few difficulties.

I ended up going with Bazzite, and can play like 95% of my gaming library so I’m pretty happy there. No league of legends but honestly that’s probably a net positive for my mental health.

I’m having difficulty getting docker desktop setup but I’m sure I’ll figure that out, had a lot of shit containerised before. But yeah, whole point of the post - Thanks people, you’re awesome.

    Just in case, podman is basically the same as docker and is preinstalled (cli only). You can use docker images and even run stuff from docker hub. There might be a GUI for it similar to Docker Desktop. Also, distrobox/toolbox are preinstalled - those variants of podman that do a lot of passthrough / bind mounts by default, so that you can build and run graphical, audio, networking apps in those and get them running with native performance and full access to devices/networking/etc.
