Basically the title. Loving PopOS as my daily, but I understand that PopOS uses their own process and makes sure that only a checked driver gets wide release. Great for stability, less great for playing games that just came out. Is there a distro that this community generally recommends for gaming?

    Fedora is fine, but you want to use flatpak firefox to get easy hardware accelerated video decoding if you’re on an AMD GPU.

    I have a lot of love lost with canonical and their shenanigans over the years.

      You should be using flatpak everything you can in any modern Linux distro, to be honest. Flatpak packaging and dependencies ensure that everything that you’d have to hunt down and optionally install then configure on your bare system is just provided and works by default.

      Fedora Silverblue is awesome for taking that to the extreme.
