Just installed Bazzite and it seems to work well so far.
Then I added a second standard user to the system and thought they’d have access to all software I just installed for the main user. But that doesn’t seem the case, Bazzite prompted me to install all those again for the second user.
Is that just a thing with immutable distros or did I do this in a wrong way? I tried looking this question up, but I couldn’t find any info on multi user setups with immutable distros.
It’s a thing with bazzite and most of the Ublue projects, you can install Flatpaks globally, but they default to per user. It’s designed to be a per-user experience as this is the core of Ublue so you would have say a work image and game image etc rather than the traditional big blob of pakages.
I see, thanks. Then I will lookup how to install some apps globally. Won’t need everything but a base set of apps that all users will need.
Look at the preinstalled program Flatseal. It’s specifically for managing flatpak permissions.
Thanks, but I couldn’t figure out where in Flatseal this would be possible.
However I managed via the Discover software center, you can actually select to install from flathub or flathub (user), the first option seems to install it for all users.
You can get into the weeds and make your own Bazzite! https://github.com/ublue-os/image-template
