Gaming on Fedora Silverblue (lemmy.one)

I am freaking out on how well distrobox is working for me. I buy a lot of games on itch.io and GOG, and neither have a flatpak. However, installing an Ubuntu container (max compatibility) and launching games from there just works. Okay, I have yet to install a GOG game, but it the Itch client works then what won't?

I am so excited. Containers are so fun. I guess arch would be easier, but whatevs.

Wouldn't it be fun to have "a ready-to-game Arch Linux based OCI designed for use exclusively in distrobox"?

You may be happy, or perhaps dismayed, to learn that I finally installed Bazzite on my desktop.

I did a bit tonne of sampling, with BlendOS and Vanilla, trying things out, but Fedora wins.

I have Fedora Silverblue on a usb in case Bazzite does not like my computer, but I think I have done enough hopping for a lifetime.

I swear I will just jump onto the NIXOS (or guix) bandwagon if I ever decide to switch again.
