RNo. It's optimized for gaming, with bundled software and configuration aimed towards improving your gaming experience, but you can do the same as you would on Bluefin and regular Silverblue/Kinoite.
DDay to day tasks can be carried out ?
RCorrect. You can still write code, browse the web, create documents etc. but you may need to install additional software (like LibreOffice if you wish to create docs).
Bazzite has what you need for gaming and regular usage, but does not restrict you from installing something else to adapt it to your needs.

KYep, outside of what we add it's normal immutable fedora
KWe don't even remove the stuff it normally comes with
KThe deck versions go slightly further and closely emulate SteamOS, but they're still Fedora underneath and still full featured
DIm too new to immutable
DDo you know any guide which can give me some idea
DLike installing nodejs and other GUI applications on immutable distros
KUse flatpak when available
DIs it pre installed?
KIf you can't find one, use distrobox
DIn bazzite
KIf that doesn't work, layer it
KYes
KSoftware/Discover both use Flathub
KLayering it lets you install rpms like normal fedora
DYou have a link to guide ?
Ksudo dnf package -> rpm-ostree install packageKI do not
DDoesn't it modify the root ?
KIt layers on top
KUse it as a last resort if neither distrobox nor flatpak can handle your use case
DGot it
DI'm sorry, I'm kind of new, please don't mind if I ask you noob questions
DIs there anyway I can try without installing
KThere is not sadly, no live CD support for immutable fedora
Pi mean, in a VM is your best bet for playing around
LHey all um i keep getting the login gui and i enter the password but it just comes right back what is going on here?
LIm on the steam deck.
KSteam or SDDM?
LDisplay manager
LWhatever the default is
KYou shouldn't have a login screen at all on deck images
KThis a fresh install?
LNo
LI just rebooted and boom
LShould i just try to rebase and see if it corrects it maybe something bugged out?
LWell got in to the desktop looks like display manager might have crashed or something resolution is way off im going to try the above see if it fixes it i was just running :latest just switch back to 39 then back to latest if that fixes it.
LNope that didn't fix it its weird the desktop mode resolution is locked at 1027x768 4:3 and won't go higher
LAnd it keeps showing the login screen when i reboot..
DI'm an arch user, will bazzite give me a similar experience?
LLast crash process is from core.gldriverquey
DAnd is there any wiki or guide you would like to point to, if I need to refer to anything
LNvm resolution was because of the wrong selected desktop session still trying to figure out the login gui showing up wondering if i re run the portal to the end it might reset to start in big picture / game mode which is what seems to not be happening i remember there being something in that mentioned if i remember correctly when it first ran.. nope didn't help either.
LAnyone know if theres a command that causes the game mode startup to happen vs the weird desktop login im getting.? I assume something somewhere got changed or something that caused it but can figure out what.
LIt's almost like whatever is set when the system is first installed to cause the steam os style startup to happen got unset some way
L@KyleGospo if you can dm me when you get this apparently i looked at the sddm.conf file and i guess it reverted back to i assume its default state for some reason everything is # out and unset i tried the ujust toggle-autologin to see if it changed anything it didn't so im not sure what is supposed to be set in the sddm.conf for the normal function of gamescope/mode on the deck but if you could just message me what the values should be i can fix the conf file.
