That's why the correct choice is Bazzite

No the correct choice is what I want to use and it is Debian. Distro-hopping doesn't fix your problems and you will end up with either the same issues or more issues by distro-hopping.

I use my Linux machine for things other than games and I am not moving to "distro of the week" to run one game.

		That's fair but Debian is shipping you multi year old packages when you want the latest drivers and mesa for games. Bazzite has those, and you can just jump into a Debian Distrobox for development.

		Usually Debian testing will get you where you need to go with Steam and gaming. The stable branch won't git r dun for you usually.
