Moving Steam Installation
I'm new to Linux as a whole, coming from just Windows, so I am still learning what is safe to do with the os.
My overall goal is figuring out how to mod both steam and non-steam games, and have that all being done on a dedicated drive separate from the bazzite installation drive. Setting up the steam and non-steam libraries was easy so I've moved to figuring out modding.
So far the tools I've found (MO2/Vortex through Steam Proton or Bottles) requires the mod manager to install in a prefix, which is in the Steam installation which in the Home directory. As I understand it, the Home directory is on the bazzite installation drive. Is there any danger in just moving Steam to my other drive? Do I just need to manually tell Steam where it's been moved to, and reset my launch icons? Is there some tool in bazzite for relocating preinstalled apps?
While I'm here, is there any difference between moving Steam and moving a flatpak like Heroic? Which is what I'm using for non-steam games.
