Is Bazzite what one would call an "immutable" OS? I found this part of the FAQ but am still unclear as my understanding isn't very deep.

Yeah, it's a Fedora Silverblue spin, but unofficial. I have used the ubuntu spin (now deprecated, and has a new name), and it was buggy and then didn't work because of the deprecation. Could have roolled back, but switched back to Windows for a while and Debian for my laptops. Now I only use Silverblue and have customized everything how I like it.

I tried the Bazzite-Gnome-installer for a HTPC, and it didn't work (after-setup was/is bugged). It's running stock Silverblue too now.

Okay, thank you. When did you last try installing Bazzite? The only reviews I could find on YouTube we're for the Steam Deck and people seemed to have good experiences. I want to try the desktop version though.

1-2 months ago. But it was the Gnome version.

Maybe rolling from stock Silverblue to Bazzite works better. Haven't tested it yet, and I think I won't, happy with my setup for now. Some tweaking has still to be done (can't control everything with my Xbox S BT controller, getting it running took 2 extra settings in the bt main.conf (AutoEnbale=true and Privacy=device)).
