fwiw they do seem to be still pretty hard at work making it *actually* work

Hpretty sure davinci resolve was in a similar state when it first released on linux too (actually worse because it required running their own specific distro i think lol)
FIt isnt finished yet so its understandable
Hnowadays it's more or less the same as windows, barring missing codecs due to mpeg forum scumbaggery
FBut you could try it through wine+dxvk+wineasio
DI've got two folders in /ostree/deploy/default/deploy that are around 16.8GB. Is one safe to delete or should I just leave them alone?
SI probably wouldn't even use my preamp with it, I'd probably just use a keyboard I have as the instrument, if I want to use one
SI do have a preamp for my guitar and for a mic
Hthat's the actual physical location of the operating system lol
Hbest to not touch it

KOne is your backup, one is your current
DThank you all, saved me from doing something really stupid 
Gnope you can dial the refresh rate of the legion but not the resolution
Gyeah after experiencing bazzite on my legion go probably not the best starter distro. I would say let them get familiar with something like linux mint first
Gunless of course you are willing to be their tech support
VOn Desktops I find Bazzite to be more reliable. A lot of handhelds have a lot of quirks which are a pain to navigate through. The Desktop experience is a lot easier.
Gyeah I bet so which is why I said probably. But who knows what issues you could encounter which is why I suggest a started distro unless you want them to be their tech support I guess
VHonestly, I had more issues with Mint.
VMy music player just would not work. Appimage and flatpak. No bueno.
Gi mean a starter distro could mean anything for likely most people
Jyeah I don't know what a "starter distro" is but that sounds terrible to me
SI was going to use mint, but I like Bazzite, I just had resolution issues with the desktop mode after hooking a TV to it
SI like the game mode
Jthe entire point is to get rid of the old way to linux, why would you send someone new to learn bad habits?
Gwdym, it's basically distros for people beginning to linux
Jright, so set them up for success
DHowdy y’all! I’m having an issue- I’m on the ROG ally and when I’m on battery, setting the TDP in either HHD or steam overlay has no effect on the TDP that is being reported. Ex: I’d set the TDP to 18 watts and when in game I’m seeing 30+ watts being used. Curious if this is a known issue for the ally or maybe just a user error. Thanks in advance 
Gthey can distrohop at any time, and I know someone who did just that. Started with Kubuntu only to distrohop
Gbut not everyone probably will distro hop
Jsure, but just because we went through pain doesn't mean new people need to
VI think Bazzite and other Ublue spins are great places to get started:
- No drivers to install
- No worry about updates
- App store with apps that work reliably
- Room to learn through distrobox
- Near impossibility of breakage

Kthese words mean nothing to 98% of computer users
Gw0t
Jlike, half the things people need to do on linux mint we've explicitly removed from their lives.
Gyou mean distrohop
KSometimes you get weird flatpak issues vs a non-immutable distro not using flatpaks, but otherwise yes
K(permissions, flatpaks communicating with each other, etc)
VWell if you have trouble with a flatpak, that's when you can get started with distrobox 
Jare those problems worse than the entire operating system falling apart?
Kdependency issues?
Knah it got solved another way, I'm just saying it's something a new user might into, especially if they just google 'how do I do X'
Kneeding to install packages for basic functionality?
KI'm also not a new user tho 
Ja new user is going to use a browser.
Gthey can choose bazzite im not gonna go against it, it's just probably not in my recommendation unless obviously you are hard on gaming which in that case probably likely
Jit doesn't have to be bazzite
Kthat's what bluefin and aurora are for
Jit just needs to be literally anything that isn't a traditional distro if you're looking to help a new user
Jthose days are gone
