    I also use Bottles with ProtonPlus on NixOS. Bazzite has better integration for crazy stuff too, and a lot is running with full privileges unlike Flatpak.

    Just look at their features, they really add a ton. The goal is to become less and less ofc, but Steam will stay proprietary so that will always be a huge change to regular (or atomic) Fedora.

    • OpenTabletDriver udev rules built in, with the full software suite installable via Bazzite Portal or by running ujust install-opentabletdriver in a terminal.
    • Out of the box support for Wooting keyboards.
