I am not bad with computers and have a beginner+, maybe intermediate level knowledge of Linux and I kept running into some problems here and there with different distros. Most claimed to work out of the box (which may be the case for some users, but I have a shit ass Nvidia 1060 and that was not at all the case, until I installed Nobara KDE/Nvidia.
Just came here to potentially save someone time, this shit is actually working out of the box, closest experience to this was with Arch, but that’s definitely not out of the box.
uBlue Bazzite is pretty cool, Fedora/Nobara, Pop!_OS, Mint, etc. mostly just work, Gauda is arch-based, is optimized for gaming and performance and is pretty user friendly.
A ton of people recommended it, so I went ahead and installed it this morning, same if not better result than Nobara and just as easy to install.
You mean Bazzite? Yeah, it’s really great. Based on uBlue, which is actually based on Fedora’s Atomic spins. It’s very stable, secure and reliable, and pretty hard to mess up. Basically the closest thing to SteamOS that you can get.
