I kinda hope not, to be honest. Unless there could be an easy way to get tiling window managers working. It’s easy on NixOS, another immutable distro, but it’s definitely not as easy on something like Silverblue.
You can totally use one of the tiling window manager images (sericea is based around sway) – it wouldn’t be a ton of work for that to be added to bazzite, it’s just another parameter in the matrix, feel free to hop into github and help out, I’m sure people will want lots of options.
Ironically, Fedora’s setup becoming the future of Linux makes it easier to tinker.
OCI images used in immutable distros such as Bazzite are very easily customizable and are much safer to tinker with. If you mess up with packages, you can roll back to the previous state and fix it. Mutable distros are also like this, but the recovery process is much more complicated and leaves leftovers in the long run.
See the Tinkerers’ Guide for more details.
