I finally joined the Fedora nation after being on Arch for a long time. Both are great.

It lasted for a precious second.
Been running Bazzite for a month and having a great experience with it! My nvidea cards work with no hassle, and with the extended proton I have had issues with only 1 game so far, and even that was fixed by just switching to a different version. Only downside so far is that Wayland doesn't work as well as X11 on my DE, but with the rest working great, I have no complaints :)
I feel like Bazzite is the new Arch in the sense that people are proud to use it and recommend it all the time
Could be, though I am not claiming it is the best distro ever made. It is very good for my use case, however, and I think that it is a good option for many gamers that are considering taking the leap.
Would you recommend this distro to someone who hasn’t used Linux (Ubuntu) since 2006? I have nvidea as well and haven’t switched because I hear of issues with nvidea
So... FWIW I post often about I have a painless NVIDIA experience, including playing Windows only games, including VR games.
I thought "Damn... how did I get so lucky?" and yesterday while tinkering with partitions (as one does...) I decided I'd try a "speed run" to go from no system to a VR Windows only game running on Linux.
I started from Debian 12 600Mb ISO and ~1h later I was playing.
I'm not saying everybody should have a perfect experience playing games on Linux with an NVIDIA but ... mine was again pretty straightforward.
I'd argue it's easier with Ubuntu and accepting non-free repository, probably having the same result, ~1hr from 0 to play, without even using the command line once.

Someone should do this meme with the Fediverse
What do you mean?
Which software
@dch82 Mastodon. I'm using it right now. I reply to you from Mastodon.
For many people, it's an additional learning curve to think of Lemmy, Mastodon, mbin, etc as the same network
Well you know, the commie instances, the nazi instances, the cp instances
My favorite (not): The instances who find it more crucial to defederate from Threads than pedo and neonazi instances...

Linux is Linux.
We should send all those people, pages and guides suggesting distros to hell.
And then instead we suggest update-schemes (fixed, rolling, slow-roll), package managers and Desktop environments. People with enough brain cells to start a computer are then absolutely able to chose a distro fitting them based on that. Everything else coming with a distro is just themeing/branding anyway...
(and just for the use statistic: Archlinux, Opensuse (Leap and Kalpa), Debian here...)
There’s a lot of advantages that simply come with using a more popular distribution. For one, having a larger pool of package maintainers (and therefore more packages) is pretty important. Have you ever tried using NixOS as a daily driver? I did a few years ago. Very annoying having to create my own packages for so many different (and relatively common) things I wanted to use.
I'm ready for the feature triangle
I don't care in the slightest which package manager or UI or if releases are rolling or rocking.
What I care about is usability and ease if use, so I went with the best one, Linux Mint!
😁
WSL and Android, then?
