I really enjoy archlinux so I was thinking on downloading garuda gaming but I’m unsure if that’s the way to go. What distro do you guys use? Have you encontered many problems with it?
Nobara is a great gaming focused distro, it’s a fork of Fedora by a well-known Red Hat employee.
It’s by the GloriousEggroll guys, and I really liked it a lot. I would still be using it if it worked better with my laptop’s hybrid Nvidia graphics setup. When I get around to swapping my desktop to linux, I’ll almost certainly go with Nobara first.
FWIW, Pop!_OS is where I landed for great hybrid graphics support.
I’ve had really good luck with Pop!_OS. AMD CPU and NVIDIA GPU, so having the NVIDIA drivers bundled is nice.
Most games in my Steam library work out of the box with no tinkering of Proton. I’ve lucked out in that the games that do require tinkering work with Proton Experimental or Glorious Eggroll’s releases. Lutris is the same, though I just default to the latest Glorious Eggroll release.
Regular Fedora Workstation is a good compromise between stability and new kernels etc.
Personally I like the KDE spin best: https://fedoraproject.org/spins/kde/
+1 from me. Fedora is a nice middle ground - stable, polished, yet adopting new things fast.
