I really started to dislike Windows and projects like Bazzite made it incredibly easy to make the jump. The wife is now gaming in Linux for the same reasons.

Great suggestions. The Ventoy bros are weird. Just use what works for you.
Cool, but would probably just install Bazzite anyway.
Yes, and I love it.
I only use my PC for gaming and web browsing. I mainly stuck with Fedora, but also used Tumbleweed and Nobara. Regardless of which distro I used I was never fully satisfied with the initial setup or upkeep.
Fedora was great, but I was hopping around often and there was always a setup process to get Steam and what not installed and set up.
Nobara is a great option with gaming tools installed and setup for you. However, it’s maintained by a single (awesome) dude and major upgrades often require some manual work arounds.
Tumbleweed was great until there were updates. More times than not, updates failed due to repo or dependency issues.
Bazzite, however, is the first (and only, so far) distro where I quite literally install, reboot, launch and log into Steam, start playing games. No other setup steps were required as everything I need is baked into the image. And with the automatic updates there’s been no upkeep.
Since installing Bazzite I’ve had no desire to try anything else, which is great. More time for gaming. 🎮
Doom 1 was my first real PC game and will always be special, as will Doom 2.
I adore zdoom and the modding community.
Doom 2016 is hands down my favorite after multiple playthroughs. It just feels incredibly satisfying to play.
Never finished Doom Eternal. The changes to combat are too frustrating to me.
I tried a few themes but always go back to Breeze Twilight (dark bar with light windows).
I chose to use auto login for my PC. This way I’m only using my password to decrypt the drive after a reboot or the login screen after waking ffrom sleep.
It’s a good change that reduces complexity, I’m all for it. Especially since it’s no longer required to add the launch command with every game.
Bazzite right now. I only use my PC for gaming and get limited play time, so I usually wake it up and straight into a game. Bazzite has worked extremely well for me to achieve that with virtually no maintenance so far (updates are automated).
Still the best OST too.
No deaths since 2011 seems sus.
If you do enable the packman repo, expect intermittent dependency conflicts when running zypper dup
. When it happens, wait a day or so for repos to update.
Edit: spelling
Let people enjoy things.
Most people aren’t buying $40k+ cars? Weird.
Just be careful with Packman repos. Docs advise to run zupper dup
with --allow-vendor-change
but this has broken KDE a few times for me and I was forced to revert to a previous snapshot.
That said, openSUSE Tumbleweed with snapshots is the ideal rolling release distro and works great for gaming.
And if it does, roll back to the previous snapshot.
I did not expect to get attacked like this.
Robot.
Even my 12 year old PC meet these specs. Wild.
Glad to see the use of “temporary” code started early.
