  I run cachy and have a script set up to launch steam os when I switch to TTY3. Can just shortcut between cachy and steam os. The steam ‘switch to desktop’ also shuts down steam and switches back to cachy. It’s super nice.

  I went with Bazzite because I had assumed you couldn’t do this with Cachy, but I’m also a complete noob with Linux outside of my steam deck, so it might be for the best anyway. I’m interested in Cachy because the discover store seems to be better than the Bazaar, and I wonder if using Arch would make getting my PSVR2 working on my PC any easier than it was on Bazzite. The mutability is a little scary, though. I already had a situation with Bazzite where the motherboard stopped detecting my NVMe, and I couldn’t find a way around just reinstalling Bazzite from scratch again and redownloading my games. I had plugged in a really old hard drive to see if I could format it to work with Steam before booting into the system and the system assumed it had to boot into the hard drive, and then after that it just booted into the bios and had no clue where the proper hard drive was. I still wonder if there was an easier fix I didn’t know about.
