Due to the raining amount of #linux opinions regarding newbies. I shall subject my dear competent friend to a test where he is to install Linux and a game from steam with minimal help from me. What #distro do you people think will do best? Please start a war in the replies.

No, I won't subject him to Nix.

Goal is to create a blog post with the shortcomings to HOPEFULLY help a few linux newbies on their way to success.

Retoots appreciated

@[email protected] Fedora Workstation/KDE if some smaller technical tweaks are fine/wanted as challenge, otherwise maybe mint or bazzite

@[email protected] Fedora is a great distro once you have a few smaller things fixed (think enabling rpmfusion for software with "problematic" licensing or setting flathub as default), but those are still some minor technical hurdles that have to be overcome first. So I would recommend it only if the target is fine with handling those small things first
