GamingOnLinux<p>There's no need to wait on Valve releasing SteamOS 3 for everyone thanks to Bazzite.

GamingOnLinux<p>If you're wanting something similar to SteamOS right now that has much wider hardware support for your gaming handhelds like the Lenovo Legion Go, ASUS ROG Ally, GPD, Ayaneo or even your laptop / desktop then Bazzite is likely one of the best choices.<br><a href="https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/01/bazzite-the-popular-steamos-like-linux-gets-nvidia-support-in-beta/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">gamingonlinux.com/2025/01/bazz</span><span class="invisible">ite-the-popular-steamos-like-linux-gets-nvidia-support-in-beta/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Beta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Beta</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/NVIDIA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NVIDIA</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/DistroNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DistroNews</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Misc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Misc</span></a></p>

Strypey<p>Wow, I've been really out of touch with the progress of my preferred GNU/Linux distro.
