Bazzite, a Linux-based gaming OS similar to SteamOS, is gaining popularity among gamers, especially after Windows 10's end of life, with around 50,000 weekly users. While Linux gaming has improved significantly thanks to Proton, limitations like anti-cheat restrictions and lack of native support for certain software remain. Despite these challenges, Linux's growth in gaming highlights its increasing viability as an alternative to Windows for gamers.
Linux, specifically Bazzite, significantly improves the performance, responsiveness, and user experience of the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X handheld gaming device compared to Windows, highlighting the potential for better optimization and usability in portable gaming.
Testing shows that running Bazzite, a Linux-based OS, on the ASUS ROG Ally Xbox results in faster start-up, better sleep performance, and higher frame rates in games compared to Windows, suggesting Linux may be a superior choice for this device in some cases.
