With each and every day that passes I hate Windows more and more.

I tried Bazzite on a dual boot and ran into 1 major issue that would stop me from having it as my daily OS and a minor one.

TL;DR: I tried switching from Windows to Bazzite, but two issues stopped me: some games with transparency (like idle overlays) don’t work properly, and the international English keyboard layout feels off compared to Windows, with weird accent input and delay.

1 - Game transparency

I play a FAIR amount of games and all varied, some of which include idlers. These, more often than not use transparency (think bongo cat, tap tap loot.... stuff like that).
From what I saw there was no real way to fix this issue. Even then it would be a black background and for bongo cat keys would only register when focused in.

I know that you could say well what do you value more, privacy or gaming. to which fair but I like having the options.

Is there something actively being worked on to further aid this issue in the future or is it doomed to constantly have transparency issues?

2 - INTL keyboard issues.

no matter what version of INTL Eng keyboard layout I chose, it still didn't match what was on windows. it was very much a pain in the ass. the way you put accents on letters didn't match and it even had a weird delay to it. I think this is more down to my own issues but after debugging for 20 minutes, I didn't look further.
