    I fought with Ubuntu for a weekend trying to get it to run my game library. I failed.

    I will give it a swing again when steam stops W10 support.

      Protondb is your friend. I haven’t actually been there in months though as everything I’ve played recently has just worked without issue.

      I couldn’t get anything Debian based to install correctly. I ended up using Garuda, dragonized edition. It took less setup than a fresh windows install.

        That’s what I’m on too. It’s Arch based, which may scare some people because of the reputation, but it’s so easy. It comes with tools to install any packages you may need for gaming or other applications. It also comes setup with the AUR so you can “easily” (you have to use the terminal for this, but it’s not hard) install packages from there.

        For gaming Garuda dragonized is probably the best way to go. I hate the “gamer” aesthetic, but that’s easy to change.
