Tips on distro for gaming

laxsill@aggregatet.org to Linux@lemmy.ml – 27 points –

Hi! I'm getting a new laptop any day now and I plan on going back to Linux after maybe a decade on Windows. What works best for gaming nowadays? Is manjaro good for that? I prefer a distro with a nice name but of course that's not the central thing. I'll also do some book keeping, writing et cetera but I don't think it's much to worry about. I also hope to use my Valve Index on it.

That's honestly a really good distro picking strategy for someone just moving to Linux.

Unless you think "from scratch" sounds nice.

Credit where credit is due. I was taught the strategy by Amelia Andersdotter, back then running for the European Parliament (then member of parliament).
