Well I’m hopping around… again. I thought I had a good stable setup going but then something happens upstream that goes against what I want/believe in (looking at you RedHat) and I’m back on the hunt again.
I thought about trying out a Debian based distro but then I thought “why don’t I just use Debian itself (Sid, not stable/Bookworm)”.
Most if not all gaming software have a way to be installed on Debian so I don’t think that could be an issue.
Is anyone else using Sid? Am I missing something by not going with a gaming focused distro??
I’m as new on Linux as one can get. Installed Nobara a week ago on my laptop. Steam Deck got me to wanna try Linux on my PCs. Claims to install a lot of what I would need in its package. Seems to work so far. Not based on Debian tho.
I was running Nobara and had a rock solid setup. My problem was more related to the upstream changes by RedHat. Haven’t tried SteamOS
What are those? Just trying to dip my toes and understand small bits and taking it slow. Thanks in advance.
Nobara is an rpm base distro so this link goes over the changes I’m referring to. Nothing wrong with Nobara, it’s just a matter of principles for me
