Does the community have any thoughts on Bazzite for a desktop gaming machine?

My primary use with be mouse and keyboard, but the deck interface looks nice for the 10% of the time I want to use a controller. I also hear that HDR and VRR work better under it then most of the DEs.

Anyone out there using Bazzite for a similar use case? I'd also be curious to here about other ways people are using it.

I run the non-deck variant with the traditional DE (KDE 6, in this case). I admit that I haven't tried the deck variants but it should work similar with the difference being the default environment to boot into, irrc.

Right now I am pretty frustrated with HDR under Linux. Well frustrated may be the wrong word, but it is the thing right now that gets me to boot into Windows to play games that have HDR.

I am wondering if I would have more luck using the deck variant for HDR because apparently Valve has this figured out before everyone else.
