I daily-drive Bazzite on multiple machines. It's excellent, even on machines I rarely use for games.
If you use the console version of Bazzite (which I use on a HTPC), it runs Steam in console mode on boot. I assume that's what SteamOS does, it seems like they designed that mode to feel identical to using SteamOS on a SteamDeck. That makes it easy to launch games etc. without needing a keyboard and mouse. Then you can go to desktop mode when you need it.
The desktop version of Bazzite is just a Linux desktop that starts Steam on boot so that it's running in the background. It has some gaming-related things installed but if you want to use it as a machine to write software it's basically ready to go.
