    If you’re into PC gaming, Nobara basically sets everything up for you out of the box. Nobara is from the same developer who made the ProtonGE compatiblity layer for Steam, GloriousEggroll. That version of Proton has been rock solid. With KDE Plasma, you also get the look and feel of Windows without the bloat.

    Like I always say, Nobara just works.

      I assume that, unlike Garuda, it also isn’t loaded with bloat?

      Also, how does it compare to Arch? How much more effort would it take one to set up the ability to play games when one should be reading Marx and Engelking?

        All I did was run the installer from USB, create my account, and clicked a button to run updates to get the latest software and drivers.

        Took less than 20 minutes.

        Anyone asking about arch instead of already using arch should use something with more robust tech support.

        It’s significantly easier than most to break because of how its design is made to get out of the way of seasoned users.

        The wiki is some of the best univeraally applocable documentation to exist, but if spending 90 mins trawling an article in the hopes of un-fucking your boot drive isn’t something that sounds enriching to you, use something else.

          I simply haven’t got around to dedicating enough time to experimenting with Arch yet, which is why I haven’t installed it or any other Linux OS yet. Generally, people seem to have a high opinion of Arch, and I would rather both use the opportunity to study how operating systems in general work, and to have a system that gives me more options, even at the expense of immediate lack of convenience.

          I also want to know more about my options, not less, so I will not be adopting lack of curiosity as an approach.
