You do. It automatically reboots after applying rpm-ostree updates.

You’re right and I’m not saying that I recommend settling it to permissive. You should understand the risks involved.
I’ve been using Fedora CoreOS as my main server in my home lab for a couple years now and have been very happy with it. You still get the convenience of automatic atomic updates and you also have the flexibility of being able to install whatever additional Fedora packages you need with rpm-ostree.
I installed Docker Engine and docker-compose from upstream. You should be able to set SELinux to permissive mode if you need to so it doesn’t enforce any policies.
They stopped the flash sales after they implemented their refund policy.
That’s just crazy talk. Crack some skulls and get Half-Life 2 out the door Mr. Newell. Everyone knows that you buy boxed PC games at the mall like normal people.
Tailscale. Use Headscale if you prefer self hosting over using their cloud service.
I don’t know if I want my friends knowing that I’m typically murdering prostitutes at the Valentine Saloon or getting lap dances at the Vanilla Unicorn before I shoot the place up. Can’t let Wade have all the fun.
I don’t have an Nvidia card myself but have you tried the latest Wine-GE through Heroic?
Worst case, you can pick up the native Linux version on Steam right now for 80% off.
It definitely has.
Native Linux support was often problematic because too many developers would use a third party to port the game and then fail to maintain it.
I absolutely love the Steam Deck and I’ll easily take the trade offs that Proton gives us. Maybe one day Linux will gain enough market share to justify more first party native support.
There’s Headscale if you want to avoid the Tailscale cloud service.
Proton is open source. Valve has also been incredibly supportive of and is actively contributing to an open ecosystem for Linux and SteamOS. Desktop mode in SteamOS exists so end users can install whatever tools they want on it.
I’ve been running it for about a week now and I’m very happy with it. Thanks for the recommendation.
I think Nobara is also still a one man operation with GloriousEggroll being the sole maintainer in addition to his GE-Proton work.
SteamOS has a lot of bleeding edge code for newer features like HDR support that work well on the Steam Deck. But those features are still buggy and not as well tested on other hardware. That’s why there’s no general purpose SteamOS 3.x release yet.
So gaming distros like Nobara that also use the same code are going to have some problems and you can’t really fault them when upstream isn’t stable yet. If you want something less bleeding edge, use Fedora, Debian, etc.
The good news is that things will get better. It’s just going to take some more time.
I’ve had a lot of stability issues with past versions. An update crashed Wayland and I couldn’t recover. I’m going to try Bazzite next.
The original SteamOS was based on Debian. But that’s been unmaintained for years. Don’t use it.
SteamOS 3.5 is currently available for the Steam Deck only and is based on Arch Linux. Valve plans on generally releasing it but they haven’t yet.
The latest Debian or Ubuntu should work fine.
I’m definitely interested in a modern Steam Machine and I wish them luck. But it’s tough to manage the logistics of crowdfunded hardware if you’re inexperienced and I’ve been burned before. Hopefully they can handle it.
