Yes this has been asked and answered a million times I’m sure. There is a plethora of ‘top ten distros for Linux gaming’ lists out there and the majority of posts I can find on That Other Site seem to devolve into “every distro can do games”.
I’m interested in what you are using and your experience doing so. Any gotchas you wished you knew? Anything you tried that didn’t work, or anything that worked unexpectedly well? What would you say if your friend asked this over a few pints down the pub?
I very recently (like last week!) stuck a new drive in my PC to run Pop!_OS, with the aim of switching over from Windows entirely if it pans out. So far I’ve only tested Steam for games, but it’s worked flawlessly for the games I’ve tried using Proton.
I’ve had a Steam Deck for some time which convinced me to make the jump. My desktop was my only Windows machine and I’d love to properly switch it to Linux.
I’m using Pop OS and it worls flawlessly!
Me too!
