Hey folks!
Thinking of switching back to Linux. I was running PopOS about 1.5 years ago and was pretty happy with the gaming aspect of things, but I was playing a lot of VALORANT back then, and I got sick of dual booting. That is less the case now, so I would like to try going back to Linux for the majority of my gaming / streaming setup, and just use Windows for the handful of games like Destiny 2 that won’t run on Linux.
I am fairly new to Linux. Don’t mind learning some terminal stuff, but I am basically a noob so it does need to be pretty easy to start with. Got a NVIDIA 3080 and AMD CPU if that matters at all.
Recommend me a distro please fellow penguin gamers.
I’d stick with PopOS because it is noob-friendly and makes installing Nvidia drivers a breeze compared to a lot of other distros. If you ever feel more comfortable with Linux you can still make the switch to something else, but I don’t think there will be many reasons to do so as long as you like PopOS and get everything working the way you want.
In the meantime you can just read about other distros and if you come across a good reason for switching, you can consider it then.
