They're good as a gaming/day to day use distros. It's a bit annoying when you start needing to install things on the root level. It's doable, but not as straightforward as on your regular distro. I have bazzite htpc as my basement steam console and it's been fantastic (one issue with suspension but no big deal, I just shut it down when I'm done).

I also have it on a laptop that I use sometimes before bed to watch something or do something on the browser. They're great if you want something that just works.

My main rig runs cachy OS.
