It's a gaming PC but I will use it for other things as well. I don't want to complicate other tasks because I've chosen a really specific OS for gaming, if that makes sense.
It shouldn't. A gaming focused OS will just come with all the necessary software and configurations for gaming, and not much else.
Chimera also adds a lot of the cool functionality from SteamOS like the in-game configuration options, Gamescope, and launching directly into the Steam Big Picture mode on boot so you don't need a keyboard or mouse.
This makes it sound like Big Picture is preferred.
Surely I'm not alone in my dislike for it, right?
Right???
Right.
