The gamer variant you’re talking about is Nobara.
Which is pretty good.
I switched to it about a month ago, reminds me of what Ubuntu used to be with its easy to use-ness

stephenc@lemmy.world 1 year agoPop!OS is becoming more and more out of date and problematic. Honestly Fedora is the only version of Linux worth using these days (there’s some gamer variant of it I can never remember that’s probably fine too).

It is? Hmm I’ve not had a single issue with it in years. It gets regular updates, granted it’s not on the current Ubuntu version, but out of date it is not. What problems does it have?
Use what you want, but making the declaration that Fedora is the distro to go with is a stretch.

Yes, that.

Honestly, there’s a half dozen that are just as good as Fedora out of the box, and dozens that are just as capable once broken in.

I have yet to find a distro besides Fedora that is actually reliable and works well with everything with minimal tweaking. Ubuntu and its derivatives are horribly unstable and finicky and everything else has its own issues. Fedora just works.

Dude what are you talking about? Are you running something super specialized or old, wacky hardware? Trying to use Wayland with an Nvidia GPU? I’d gladly put my Pop system up against any Fedora system and I wouldn’t have a hiccup.

If you would do any searching regarding Pop!OS you would see tons of posts and articles saying that it hasn’t been updated in forever and it’s not just graphics drivers and such that need updating, it’s essential OS packages. You’re running the Windows 7 of Linux distros and spouting the same arguments as they do.
