Garuda is built for gaming and it’s as beginner friendly as an arch based rolling release can be which is medium? It definitely isn’t super stable but I like it.
I’m not super knowledgeable about neon but I believe it can handle gaming fairly well. It looked to be much closer to the modern windows than any of the other distros I’ve seen.
I will recommend KDE as a desktop environment because you can easily change it.
I also hear good things about Pop OS which is a very beginner friendly distro that’s good for gaming but I don’t like GNOME and it doesn’t like my Dvorak
Obligatory “switch to Linux” comment.
I had that problem and that solution did resolve it.
Unfortunately it made me the weird lady at the bar recommending people try operating systems
“What’ll you have to drink?”
“I use arch, btw”
Just give me the hops, yeast, and water and I’ll compile it myself.
Yes I use arch, how did you know
Hey weird lady, what would you recommend?
I like Garuda but you should probably try something more stable. Plasma 6 is nice though.
Do your research and focus on your priorities. That said I think neon is probably what I’d recommend to my wife
Thanks for the suggestions, would those be good for gaming?
@MeDuViNoX @captainlezbian Hello, other weird person heard you from across the bar and decided to interject.
For gaming it’s really 2-3 operating systems that are probably going to have the best results.
Ubuntu, for all Canonical’s faults, has the widest array of online resources for finding problems.
Pop_OS! is similar to Ubuntu but maintained by System76 and I’ve seen sometimes said to be better.
SteamOS 3.0 (the OS on the Steam Deck) has two desktop derivatives in HoloISO & Chimera OS.
