You can't perform all the usual tasks with it; it's a limited, immutable Arch derivative.

you might be thinking of the new KDE distro. bazzite is fedora silverblue based. iirc there's access to flatpak homebrew, as well as rpm-ostree (basically rpm) among others

For regular people that just want gaming and a web browser it's fine. It would drive people like us nuts, but they aren't gonna care.

It can load into a desktop environment by default and you can install Flatpacks, and it comes setup for gaming out of the box. That's enough for 90% of people.
