Finally made the move - Lemmy.World

Just don’t ask how long it took to get my dGPU working properly :D But thankfully, there were a bunch of helpful folks with tips!

Following the ancient traditions, I’m here to tell you that you picked the wrong distro. 😉

But welcome aboard.

Oh undoubtedly!

Hopefully my partitioning was decent though, so distro-hopping shouldn’t be too hard if I feel like switching (or even running different distros side-by-side?)

I was personally drawn to it because: it’s not Ubuntu; ButterFS seems like a nice safety net; KDE Plasma is sexy AF; noone seems to have anything particularly horrible to say about it.

Why is your chosen distro (obviously) is the superior choice?

Mint for gaming, because it’s nice to have a rock-solid OS that doesn’t need much beyond updates in terms of maintenance. Arch for hobby tinkering, because voiding warranties is fun.

Consider Bazzite for gaming?

Bazzite makes gaming and everyday use smoother and simpler across desktop PCs, handhelds, tablets, and home theater PCs.

I’m sure it’s great but I’ve had no issue on Mint.
