Hi!! I’ve been using Bazzite on a nvidia workstation as a dev machine and it’s been a stellar experience so far, thanks a lot for that!
Having said that, I noticed that Steam (and other apps like lutris) are installed with the system and not as flatpaks, is there any way to remove them? I would prefer to have these installed as flatpaks since I like the granular control I can have with regards to sandboxing & filesystem control.
Bazzite’s primary function is to be a gaming setup so these are included on the image. Bluefin or Aurora might be a better fit for you depending on which desktop environment you prefer to use.
You can’t because it’s currently a limitation of OCI. As j0rge stated, Bluefin (GNOME) or Aurora (KDE Plasma) is the sister project of Bazzite and share many similarities. Steam and Lutris are not part of the image on those specific images.
Ic, I appreciate the quick responses!
Out of curiosity, do you know which of these additional features are also present in Bluefin as well?
I actually have the same wish as ludanin. Would it be possible to consider implementing the feature that one can uninstall builtin apps? I would prefer not having to opt for Bluefin/Aurora and set up the other gaming stuff, as otherwise, Bazzite has all the features I want.
There’s no real way to do this other than setting up a custom image.
Perhaps you could add the Steam / Lutris flatpaks and remove the native installs from the menu?
I see, can’t have it all I guess. Thank you btw for the great work you and the others are putting in 
Nah, I just wanted it completely gone. Just being a bit of a perfectionist in this case who doesn’t want the same app twice, but thanks for the suggestion!
