From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I tried it and I wanted to uninstall Steam because I use Lutris and don’t want something proprietary potentially collecting data. I’m sure it’s possible to do, but I couldn’t be bothered because it’d be going against the grain. I like the concept otherwise, especially for a gaming distro. An immutable gaming / HTPC distro with Plsma Bigscreen and no Steam would be the bees knees.
Aurora is what you want. Same family of OS, different flavor. It's what I use for my PC and my wife's laptop.

Thanks, Aurora looks more attractive than Kinoite since it’s more batteries included like Bazzite. As far as Bigscreen, I think that might be possible with rpm-ostree, though my experience with this distro family is limited and not sure how much of a headache that would create.
In general you want to avoid layering packages if possible. But it's not the end of the world. You can always build your own custom image that updates whenever the base image updates if you need something more customized.
