firewall on bazzite
Im having a frankly devil of a time finding out any information about it. What firewall is bazzite using as a default installation and is there any place I can find information about it's settings to ensure it is on, running, and good to go?
Sorry if this is a dumb question... prodding and experimenting on an old laptop. Basically Im planning to jump my gaming, media center, and gaming laptop to Bazzite whenever Windows forces me to install 24H2 (and therefore recall software) so I am looking to learn before I begin.
Thank you

I think ticked = open and unticked is closed
