    I started with mint, but the more I see about Bazzite the more I wish I had started there. It just seems slightly more aligned to my needs.

      Great thing about Linux is you can change your distro whenever you want.

      If you’re uncertain, or not ready to go through the process just yet, you can always just boot Bazzite off a USB drive and play around with it for now.

        Wouldn’t that wipe my current data? Like, sure I can install Bazzite, but there’s more setup to be done once again, and if I dislike it then I’m going through the setup once more. I understand it’s not that hard all things considered, but it’s not necessarily easy to just go mucking around with it with limited free time.

          Oh yeah there’s definitely a bit of effort involved, but most distros have very similar directory setups, so it’s often just a matter of copying across the relevant folders, with the “home” folder being the one that typically contains most or all of your user data.

          Being able to test run distros off a USB drive is a great (and easy) way to see if it might be for you without making any sort of commitment.

          Another option is to install the distro to a second hard drive so you have a more permanent environment to test it. I’ve done this before, and when I was content that I wanted to switch to it I just copied all my stuff across.
