Which distro ? I've been rocking Bazzite for a year, and holy mother of christ, it requires less maintenance than my smartphone.

I've been rocking endeavourOS.
It's really nice, but I hear great things about bazzite. I'm going to have to take bazzite & steamOS for a spin

I installed EOS and I'm liking it.

If you like endeavourOS, CachyOS is really good too. It's also Arch based and includes a really fast custom kernel. It also has lots of gaming enhancements whatever that means. I've been trying to spread the word, not a lot of people seem to know about it. I hear Bazzite is pretty good as well. I definitely need to try it out.

Bazzite for the win!

That's actually what I went with too. I considered Mint and Pop!OS but really my PC is a gaming machine with a nvidia card. A friend recommended bazzite and its exactly what I was looking for.

I'm also on a gaming/graphics workstation rig with nvidia and fedora runs games windows can't run no longer and overall is more stable when gaming. Only issue is vr and games that are intentionally disabled on linux via anticheat. But they're slop anyway other than delta force, which is unplayable due to hackers.
