That’s exactly it, Bazzite, a distro associated with gaming, running on hardware that even at release was criticized for being “landfill fodder”.

It’s Bazzite on wildly impractical hardware. I had the installer on my ventoy USB and decided to try and install it on my crapbook for shits and giggles.

No, it doesn’t run well. But to be fair, I also had Firefox open on another desktop with the only open tab being Lemmy.
