Comment on Any desktop-mode tips for a new Steam Deck owner?

Yeah that’s what I meant, if you really want to use pacman or one of the traditional package managers then install another distro

Right… I guess I’m just a little surprised that there isn’t a solution akin to Fedora Atomics’ rpm-ostree.

I’ve not read the details for a few years, but I’d guess there isn’t because there doesn’t need to be for the vast majority of users. Even the few who use desktop mode can manage with flatpaks, the few who can’t can use distrobox, etc.
