I really enjoy archlinux so I was thinking on downloading garuda gaming but I'm unsure if that's the way to go. What distro do you guys use? Have you encontered many problems with it?

Nobara is a great gaming focused distro, it's a fork of Fedora by a well-known Red Hat employee.

It's by the GloriousEggroll guys, and I really liked it a lot. I would still be using it if it worked better with my laptop's hybrid Nvidia graphics setup. When I get around to swapping my desktop to linux, I'll almost certainly go with Nobara first.

FWIW, Pop!_OS is where I landed for great hybrid graphics support.

@shreddy_scientist @alehc Well, not just for gaming, but for beginners, or people who like the simplicity of the desktop environment, Linux Mint. I used it for quite a long time, and altough is has some quirks (as any linux distros do), it is a decent all-rounder, for everyday use and for gaming too.
