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?
Garuda
ive been using Rhino Linux and have been very happy with it!
Recommended system requirements for this one?
its a ubuntu based distro using a modified xfce de, so not much i wouldnt think for system requirements.
im using a modern laptop with 4gb of ram and itspretty smooth.
Gentoo. It will be the last distro you hop to. Because it’s whatever you want it to be. Don’t be afraid. It even has a special command and portage repo to install all the support files and ancient libraries from 2002 your old games need in one shot.
You can snag a binary kernel, browser and some compilers now too if you don’t want to deal with that. It’s not much more difficult than Arch nowadays.
Gentoo takes a serious commitment if for no other reason than build time. I would not go around recommending it to anyone who isn’t an enthusiast. PopOS to Gentoo is kind of a crazy jump.
