I just installed Nobara today so I could finally rid myself of Windows hell and it’s been amazing.

Is that a linux distro?

Nobara is a Fedora distro(essentially backed by IBM) by Glorious Eggroll (developer who made Proton GE) designed to be more gaming user oriented, as many of its preincluded configs and applications were tailored to gamers.

Calling Fedora IBM backed feels so wrong but technically true I guess.

I am currently using Fedora mostly for gaming. I wonder what's different to Nobara?

From their site:

Fedora with user-friendly fixes added.

It seems the fixes are mostly related to better onboarding and avoiding the terminal for basic stuff, like adding yum repos. If you're already familiar with Linux it shouldn't offer you much beyond the nice-to-have kernel patches and better Nvidia compatibility.

Thx. Nvidia compatibility was the only problem I had so far. But I could solve it myself. Will check Nobara maybe the next time I get issues.

It's also preinstalled with Steam and Lutris, and includes a pile of graphical tweaks for running games and video editing suites like daVinci Resolve, etc.

It is, a gaming focused Fedora distro to be exact.

Lol I read that as Norton at first!

I just installed Norton Anti-Virus Suite and it's been amazing. I haven't been able to use my computer since!

No chance the crypto-mining trojan can make any money for it's creator, Norton uses up all available processing power doing whatever the fuck it is that it does.

Norton OS. It's just full of trials to their software.

I want to do the same, but I'm on the fence between Nobara and Bazzite.

Bazzite looks like it’s way more customizable and expanded. I might actually dual boot it out of curiosity.
