Windows is only for games; macOS and Linux are for work. Once they catch up, it will be bye-bye Windows.

What's your recommended Linux distro for a Windows gamer to try?

[–] phantomwise@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 months ago

Definitely Nobara, it's a distro optimized for making games actually work. On other distros I always had some games that wouldn't run, but never on Nobara. Zero hassle.
