Was looking into Nobara, realized its a solo dev, wondering if cachy is the best pick for compatibility. I play a lot of different stuff , use blender, controllers, flightsticks, etc. Not really into flightsims rnow and im dualbooting for now so its not a major issue on that front. Just want most steam games and controllers, drivers, etc. to work and get the best performance.

Update: Went with Cachyos for now, but first sign of any issues and I’ll switch to bazzite since it seems to be safer and more reliable. Havent had any issues so far.

    They’re all pretty much the same now as far as distributions go. Kernel and driver versions paired with whatever versions of wine/proton are what will get you better performance now.

    If you want to stay more towards the bleeding edge of things, go with a faster releasing rolling distro. Fedora or Arch, but the former unless you’re really familiar with what you’re doing.

      Bazzite is the best currently, based on fedora so it’s up to date, atomic so it stable AF

          it means if you break your system you can rewind to a previous working stable configuration and it makes it slightly harder to muck around with os level stuff helping prevent breakage, also many apps are containerised further limiting their side effects on the os’s stability

          is that the noise you were talking about?

            Lol. I’m not asking if it is. I’m saying it has absolutely no impact on the stability of a system at all. You’re also confusing stability and reliability, so there’s that.

            If OP isn’t handing out root passwords, no standard user is going to be able to affect a normal mutable system either.

            Y’all a bunch of hypequeens 😂

              Yes. In the last few years “stable” gets thrown around an awful lot for bleeding edge Arch, Tumbleweed, etc. Anything people feel their system didn’t crash so it counts as being stable…
