Eu resolvi migrar 100% do meu "ambiente de desenvolvimento" prum container (usando o Distrobox com Podman ou Docker). Vou manter todos os arquivos dos meus projetos nas partições dos meus HDs normalmente, e vou instalar todas

an app that can make small, bootable versions of other linux distros and run in docker-like containers! useful if you want to install a bunch of stuff for a specific use without clogging your "base" distro distrobox.it
Distrobox
Use any linux distribution inside your terminal.

one thing I *really* struggled with when I started using Bazzite was figuring out how to launch the linux version of game maker. distrobox just felt super overwhelming...

but since I had to reinstall my OS a few days ago I gave it another crack. and holy crap!! it was surprisingly easy this time!!

@nicoverbruggen.be Sorry to message out of the blue, but I found your article on ditching Win for Bazzite.
Could I ask how you're doing dev work on it?
Many of the toolchains I use are PATH based and not working well in Distrobox or causing me literal (burnout) headaches in devcontainers.
Any tips?

O Homebrew no Linux fica em /home/linuxbrew (fora da sua pasta de usuário).

Para resolver, crie o contêner montando a pasta:

distrobox create --name dev --image ubuntu:latest --volume /home/linuxbrew:/home/linuxbrew

E adicione o brew no seu .bashrc!

Você usa Distrobox + Homebrew no Linux e tomou esse erro:

"bash: brew: command not found"

O brew funciona perfeitamente no host, mas some dentro do contêner. O problema está no isolamento de diretório e tem uma correção simples:

guys that new linux distro pikaOS is pretty great! My performance in games with it is the same as Nobara

If you use GameMaker like I do, then it's also debian based so you can use gamemaker without having to go through distrobox

im not paid for this i just like the cute bird os :)

i'm currently using alpine linux and currently tor browser is running inside of a flatpak. iirc, flatpak's sandboxing weakens firefox's (and thus tor browser) sandbox. i think i'm going to experiment using podman w/distrobox, kinda like a shitty qubes os

In general I’ve found that “run it in Distrobox” to do a lot of heavy lifting

#toolsday: Distrobox 🧰

Andere Linux-Distributionen direkt im Terminal nutzen, ohne VM-Ballast. distrobox setzt auf Podman oder Docker auf und bringt Tools aus anderen Distros nah an euren Host.

Für Dev-Setups oder Tests?

I understand the rationale from a production perspective but I just run it in Distrobox lol.
October 20, 2026 at 5:05 PM
I assume you’ve seen that one Distrobox script for it.

I have done it. It’s 4 am and I have figured out the perfect Linux environment. I have peaked. 🫠

And I just figured out how to use distrobox containers. In my defense I’m tech literate, not tech savvy

Pretty easy to install with Davincibox but the free version lacks some codecs for licensing reasons. I think studio adds h.264/265 back. The Linux version is native to Rocky Linux but Distrobox seems pretty stable to the point where it’s built into Bazzite Portal. Still trying to move stuff over.

steamos keeps the system partition read-only, so skip pacman and put the tooling in distrobox or a flatpak. llama.cpp has a vulkan build that runs on the amd gpu without rocm. and stop the server before launching a game, since a loaded model holds the vram the whole time.

The compatibility checker one? I’m not familiar with Distrobox.

Now that I've been using it for a bit I found some annoying problems. The main one is that distrobox seems to be absolutely incapable of running on startup and all the workarounds I've tried also don't work :/ There has to be a way to do it, but it's anything but straightforward at least.
I'm seriously impressed by how well Distrobox works 😳 I set up a Ubuntu 24 distobox to install Protonmail Bridge and it just worked absolutely perfectly, including support for the tray icon. Gotta say, I did not expect it to work _this_ well.
