Kor $0 for bazzite
Ai dont know if you can charge both manufacturers and game distributors
Hi was with an american for 14 years but i was already a natural before that 
Aseems like double dipping
ZWhy use playtron whatever when you have Bazzite.
Awell the device has to come with something
Acharging per device seems a bit too much tho, maybe a lump sum is better but who knows
Abut then again ayaneo sells like 0 devices
Aso 10$ per head is like 20.000 for ayaneo selling 2k devices
5I think all gaming companies are looking for a new market to squeeze the juice from
Athats not unreasonable for supporting their 
device
deviceAfor like 5 years
5People got their consoles, they got their pcs, the handhelds are like a special 3rd thing that Microsoft and valve haven’t fully claimed yet. So they think they can just pop up out of nowhere do it
ZBefore I met my fiancee I was travelling the world through a program called ESC which is basically helping people/organizations in need around Europe and some part of the world.
Also just did some research on this playtron thing, Bazzite wins hands down.

Aplaytron wont ship until next year
Pventure capital just means future enshittification
Aand then even next year it will be like webOs 1.0
FCheck this out.
Why to pay for the OS when you can use Bazzite for free?

ZBruh playnite and playtron's "example images" look scarily similar, also why add another weird os thing to the competition when you have Bazzite os nearing perfection on being a ported SteamOS
Pplaynite? did I miss something from them?
ZChanging the format from debian 8 to fedora seems like the most genius thing ever too.
Anot really
Aits also C#
Adamn
Awould have been nice to port
ZYou can customize playnite which is a windows application thing to have games from all your platforms and then choose different themes for how it looks, those "example images" look scarily a lot like some of those themes.
ZAnd they have similar names.
Pah. I used playnite when I was on windows. it's really nice, kind of wish there was something like in on linux to get that metadata for non-steam games or self-added Heroic games etc
AI think what could be interesting is making a game mode that doesn't require steam
Abut we'll have to see if it pans out well
ZOooo, that would be something.
Aright now game mode requiring steam is both a blessing and a curse
Ablessing in the sense that a lot of stuff has been built for us
Acurse being that we need to hack around Valve's limitations
Adecky plugins are one example of a hack to get around Valve's limitations
Aeven though decky is great, still a hack 
ZCurse in the sense that valve may one day decide that this thing we're doing is not okay once SteamOS releases publicly for handhelds as they have earlier promised is also a possibility I can imagine
Pon the bright side, maybe Sweeney will actually give a crap about linux if there's a real non-valve option
NIm going to work on a project (handheld console and it’s going to use bazzite but it’s going to take a while for it need to learn a lot of things I only know basic stuff on Linux
RCartridges/Lutris fills in for this imo or even steam if you create shortcuts for everything
Athat's why i've kept my eye on OGUI since Steam really is a curse because we have to shittily hack around Steam so much
having a solution with excellent handheld and game controller support would be a godsend but that also takes time and work and effort, time that people don't really have which is why OGUI dev has been so slow

Ajust kinda how it is
FI hope that OGUI interface can be modified, as it looks too simplistic for my taste
Ayeah
AOGUI has been in an alpha-like state for a very long time
Ai wonder if they're going to use the learnings from OGUI in PlaytronOS
Aor whatever it's called
FWhile operating systems usually can pass minimalistic design without much complaints, you can notice that special attention is paid to UI & sound effects in consoles
Fso I hope they improve in that regard
Halright everyone I'm gonna give installing Bazzite another try soon
