    Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, or PopOS

    What about Arch? I was told:

    mint is garbage. The only thing easier about mint or any of those “noob friendly” distros is the initial install

    any time you want to do anything outside of its strict little ecosystem it becomes a massive headache

    arch’s wiki is unparalleled

      Arch is cool until it isn’t. If an update breaks your system, then you better know how to fix that by yourself, because the wiki is definitely not the holy grail that some people make it out to be and the community can be toxic as hell. Also, Mint is based on Ubuntu so I would not call that a “little” ecosystem. In the end, each distro has its pros and cons and you have to weight & figure out what fits best for you and your personal needs.

        I chose Arch for gaming because SteamOS is based on it. The only issue I had was when ricing. Steam just seemed to work after enabling proton. I’m rather new, but I havent had my system break yet and everyone talks like its inevitable. Idk what to believe but I’m having fun.
