I discovered that you can actually encrypt the home directory on SteamOS as well, its a kind of ultra beta feature but it actually seems to work fairly reliably aside from requiring you to set it up via SSH from another computer
Bazzite basically is SteamOS for desktop. I’ve got a steam deck and PC with Bazzite and I probably couldn’t tell you which is which if you just showed me a TV with one of them running.
that's interesting to know, wasn't aware of this :) but then i'm even more confused what's wrong with my Bazzite, Steam Big Picture mode is unusable, runs at about 2 fps. i could debug it, but don't really use it anyways, just noticed when starting it.
