Nobara for gaming. I’ve had issues with multiple other distros but Nobara just works. It’s based on Fedora but is preconfigured with everything needed to game right away. Every other distro I’ve had to fix some random issue from Steam not running (latest Fedora) to game controllers needing to be remapped. Nobara sorts this all for you. Fedora for a laptop. It seems to have the best support for a variety of weird hardware. Bazzite for TV gaming. That’s basically what it’s built for.
