The Steam Deck has finally been surpassed — by a fork of Valve’s own experience - Bazzite turns the Asus ROG Ally X into today’s best handheld while putting Windows to shame. (www.theverge.com)

I'm running bazzite on my steam deck and I love it, it gives me more compatibility with uh... alternatively sourced games. It may be a community project, but it's brilliantly done

Oh Bazzite is great, no doubt about it.

But it's not endorsed/supported in any way by ASUS so ROG Ally (X) compatibility isn't a given. ASUS could release a firmware update tomorrow that breaks compatibility (very unlikely of course).

Veeery unlikely to happen, considering Valve is adding (has added?) support for the Ally to SteamOS.

Do you have any recommendations for learning more about Bazzite for such a use case?
