Graphs can be found here on their github. Since around mid November the active user count for Bazzite has gone up by around 16k active users.

Personally, my only wish for Bazzite is a Cosmic version 👼 I tried it out recently and it seems fairly impressive

    Flatpak is simply a sandboxed application, similar to a Docker container. Its better to have natively installed applications over sandboxed if you are seeking the highest level of performance.

    You have essentially made all your games run within a sandboxed instance which has a limited set of binaries that emulate another mini OS within your primary OS.

    If you haven’t seen any performance issues, then keep on doing what you’re doing, the software is very well made compared to Ubuntu Snap and likely has similar driver performance as close as possible to bare-metal

      Isn’t it just library bundling? It’s not like it’s running inside a virtual machine or anything.

      I can see the Rocket League process right there when listing my user processes, e.g.

      There are so many conflicting reports regarding the performance on Flatpak, for Steam but also in general, so I don’t know what to believe.

      At least one source said the performance overhead is negligible on modern hardware, so I think I’m gucci.
