Yeah, I do have to say that the Linux community has been improving though.

I tested Bazzite for a while, I liked it. I ultimately settled on Fedora KDE. I could see myself going back to Bazzite if I stop dual booting Windows for gaming and random programs. But…maybe by then I will have upgraded my GPU, and I’ll be going AMD if so, and there’s therefore less reason to go with Bazzite since I’ll have proper AMD drivers no matter what. I could also envision openSUSE Tumbleweed if I wanted to live more dangerously but not go with Arch-based.

Oooh I see. I made mine full AMD to go full linux. (And I admit I went for Manjaro 10 years ago and never went back. Also very tempted to go for Bazzite) I hope the nvidia drivers will get better for linux, I’ve heard they made some great progress lately!

I got Nvidia working but had to sign the drivers to get them to gel with Secure Boot. Hopefully won’t have to do that every major update but we’ll see.
