I have a special spot that gets extremely annoyed when I feel I have to spend a necessary time just figuring out what something is. The page suffers from "developer-brain" marketing, where they describe the technology used to build it (cloud-native images) rather than what the product actually is. Why not just lead with that it is a Linux distro/version focused on gaming. In the beginning, I thought it was new hardwa…

"The next generation of Linux gaming - Bazzite makes gaming and everyday use smoother and simpler across desktop PCs, handhelds, tablets, and home theater PCs." Are we reading the same website?
Here's a thought experiment. What hypothetical piece of technology am I describing? > Next generation of construction - gezzite makes construction smoother and simpler across various commercial and residential projects.
"Next generation of construction bricks" is already obvious

Interesting. So Bazzite could be, theoretically, remade as just a NixOS configuration file.
Ironically, I'm considering installing Bazzite alongside NixOS because it's proven to be nearly impossible to run SteamVR properly with how Steam is packaged
Tl;dr: Run Monado w/ OpenComposite for the Index, it runs way better.

Or it’s some gaming smoothening software.
Hmm runs on tablets, so it’s an App then… that also runs on htpcs… hmmm…

What console line has had several generations of hardware iterations in the past decade? Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo have all put out two generations at best, with plenty of games still shipping to the "old" generation even now.
They’ve all had 2-3 models in the last decade-ish. So that’s at least 1 time I would have had to have thrown everything away. I miscounted though, I’ve been running the same OS since Windows 7. Probably 2014. I’ve been able to upgrade without having to throw away my entire operating system. Consoles aren’t a solution for longevity.

That could apply to everything from some sort of software service, to a game installer, to a streaming service, to an App Store for cross-platform games. You have to take into account the chaos that is the Internet and the promotional material shit storm of marketing speak. A sentence extremely close to this could easily be found on the top of the Razer Synapse promotional page. Why not lead with a simple description…
Even if one game doesn't work on this (there are many) and works on Windows, why shouldn't I just use Windows?
