Hopefully once Linux gets a big enough market share, the devs that don't have Linux compatibility for their anti-cheat start adding it. That'll really expedite its growth in the personal computer market. I think a lot of people would at least attempt to switch to Linux if you told them it was free and would run Call of Duty better.

Linux really needs decent compatibility with Adobe products, evil as they are. Linux is catering to gamers now, the coders are already there, and it totally works for the people that just need a web browser, word processor, e-mail, and some communication programs. If it can do what artists need it to, using the industry standard programs, to what other group of PC users is there to appeal?

Honestly, yeah. The real choice is rolling vs fixed release, and then your DE. I usually tell beginners to try Pop!_OS because it's easy to use and Ubuntu-based if they need tech support. Though something with a KDE spin would probably be better for a Windows refugee...

It was my understanding that everyone had heard

Such a good joke all the Nostalgia Critic could do was repeat "A BAT CREDIT CARD???" like it wasn't hilarious.

I ended up going with CachyOS because I feel confident enough to try Arch now, but I think Solus is going to be my go-to when recommending for beginners, once I try it a bit more. I think it's a good blend between stable and cutting-edge, plus getting to tell people that you won't have to replace it with Solus 2 eventually is kinda a big selling point.

Hmm, thank you for your point about Solus. I was interested because it seemed the most interested in the desktop experience. But it does seem they're updating and getting back on track. I love the idea of a weekly rolling release for beginners who still need the idea to click.

I do have backups ;)

Life of a Linux user in one comment.

I was intrigued by Hyprland, but I just went with Plasma bc that's a DE I know.

See, this is what I meant. I deflected because my phrasing gave everyone else enough information that they could just suggest a distro.

I appreciate that you've clearly put thought into the recommendation you want to give, and I appreciate that you'd like to really understand what I'm looking for. But at the time of your original comment, CachyOS was baremetal on my machine. So, I've already picked what I want, and you're insisting I must explain in greater detail so that you may answer my question (already been answered).

Please feel free to enlighten me on what made you even consider the premise of your above question.

The fact that you were insistent no one "delved into the essence of the matter." I didn't need them to, I was researching every OS that anyone mentioned.

but instead asked for a comparison between three distros that were (somehow) selected by you.

They're all gaming distros, dude. I felt like that was evident.

I'm sorry this whole post discussion has not gone the way you wanted, but it's gone the way I wanted. And I believe I've found something that works for me.

But, in the end, it ain't Sophie's Choice. I have my important files on a thumb drive and a backup thumb drive with Pop!_OS in case I need to start fresh again. NBD.

I mean everything here seems factual to me, let me know if you spot one 😂

The most unrealistic expectation of all: as advertised 😂

Do you think I am using this thread and this thread alone as my only source of information on these distros? I'm crowdsourcing opinions and checking them against the documentation for the distros and my personal preferences.

I feel as though this thread has delved into the essence of the matter perfectly well. That matter being, of course, people's opinions on the three distros I laid out. I deflected your question because you are looking to pick my brain and start an in-depth discussion, but I've reached a point in my research where I'm comfortable making a choice without any more guidance.

And, well, idk, I feel like my statements indicated I was looking for a good middle ground between a stable system that works smoothly and something I can crack open and break while tweaking - for the learning experience. I suppose that would really just boil down to fixed vs rolling release distros.

Fedora has lost my favor due to being a fixed release distro. After CachyOS was brought to my attention, and I researched it a little bit, it seemed to fit my desires pretty well. It's optimized for speed, which is perfect for games, and it's rolling release so I still get to feel like an uber haxx0r. Nothing against Fedora, it seems great. I want something a little further from my comfort zone.

Solus is appealing to me because it isn't based on anything else, and I love that it's a small team. Plus, the weekly updates thing they do felt like a good middle ground between how Debian-based and Arch-based distros work in terms of updating. But, I think I'll stick with CachyOS for now, I'm excited to use Arch btw.

Hahahaha I've unfortunately already ignored this advice but hey, all my important files are backed up ;)

fucken a 😂😂😂

Large Language Model, but not large enough to infer context. What's funnier is it understands what Bazzite is if you search Bazzite vs Nobara, but comparing it to the one with OS in the name doesn't tip the LLM off...

No worries! Others have piped in with suggestions and I've found a distro that I think will work for me!

I am very curious about trying Arch. But Solus has really caught my attention, too.

It was an N word...
