Was curious and checked. It's immutable and Arch based (similar to SteamOS I suppose):

KDE Linux is an “image-based” OS. This means the entire base OS is provided as one unit, rather than being split up into thousands of packages that are assembled into the final product on your computer.

Sometimes this model is called “immutable” because the base OS cannot be modified in the same way a traditional OS made of packages could. However, this terminology can be misleading; in KDE Linux, only /usr is provided in the form of a read-only image, and everything else on the system is modifiable like on any other Linux-based OS. And /usr is modifiable through the use of systemd extensions.

High-level implementation

systemd-boot is used as the bootloader.

The bootable image is an ISO-compatible .raw disk image built using mkosi. The base system comes from Arch Linux packages, with most KDE content built using kde-builder. Some KDE apps and 3rd-party apps are pre-installed Flatpaks.

/ is a read-write Btrfs volume. /usr is mounted on top of it in the form of an EROFS image/filesystem. Updating the system entails downloading a new one of these and its companion unified kernel image (UKI). 3-4 of these OS images and their UKIs are cached on disk at any given time, providing the ability to roll back in case of problems after updating.

A small helper program updates /etc from the content in /usr/share/factory/etc in the active OS image for anything you haven’t changed yourself. Btrfs snapshots of /etc are generated automatically.

/home is a Btrfs subvolume.

User-facing apps shown in Discover come from Flathub.

No package manager is included, but multiple methods are available for installing software that’s not available as a Flatpak app. This is an evolving topic that’s likely to change over time.

Not a lint trap per se, but:

My ultimate wish:

I want a Star Wars RPG that is a mix of Kotor and Star Wars Jedi Survivor, with Ghost of Tsushima/Yotei combat (switch between the 7 light-saber forms) and Souls like elements. A morality/faction system that is a mix of infamous (dark/light side or a middle way have different unlocks and abilities) and Fallout New Vegas (you can join any faction, no matter who the good/bad guys are).

Control and the Alan Wakes

I should really replay control, before the sequel comes out. Hope its good. The original is such a great game.

The Ford one made me think of a good one from old Top Gear:

I tried those when I was troubleshooting, but didn't need them at first. Really strange that it worked really well for 9h and then suddenly stopped, not sure how/what/why the runtimes got corrupted.

 

Edit: Check my comment on how I solved it. TL,DR: manually delete and reinstall the Steam Linux Runtimes

I got Forza Horizon 6 for my birthday a couple of days ago and beside some small audio issues it was working completely fine (1440p mostly high and ultra settings 60-70FPS) with GE-Proton11.1 and PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1

I've played it for nearly 9h already. Today the game is freezing at the first frame after the epilepsy and so on warnings.

I've tried different Proton Versions (Experimental, Hotfix, Official 10 and 11, GE 10 and 11), no launch args and some of the launch args that I found on ProtonDB, restarted the PC and verified the game files, all to no avail.

I've heard that the game was being difficult at launch, but it was working great, but now for some reason it doesn't run anymore.

Maybe one of you wizards has some ideas, would be much appreciated.
