Experienced here, did my time in Arch, learned a lot, perhaps even more than necessary, now retired to Fedora, then Bazzite and Aurora-dev. It just gets out of my way nicely. Something, something, Bell curve meme, plateau of enlightenment meme.

And I would absolutely recommend Arch to a technically competent gamer newcomer as the fastest way to get up to speed.

Horses, Courses.

    Bazzite was my first attempt at really daily driving Linux. I ended up on Aurora dev and I don't have any reasons to move to something different.

    The U-Blue OSs really feel like the future to me.

    Incredibly cool tech, but it just works.

    Yup, you can just do your Arch (or other distro-hopping) stuff in a distrobox if you want. Break it, blow it away and start fresh, uBlue don't care... Switch DEs, that's a one liner (although Gnome and KDE still don't play well together, so use a fresh user). What's not to love?

    I (want to) like Ublue distros but for some reason i can't get drag and drop in flatpak firefox and Thunderbird to work, how do you deal with this, if you don't mind the stupid question :D

    As in between them ? Not something I do enough to care about, and I use Zen and Betterbird, Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V, but I just selected something from Zen and dropped it into a new message in Betterbird without issue...KDE FWIW. There are still some rough edges with flatpak and wayland, but they're mostly smoothed now. It's usually permissions (KeepassXC and firefox is a bitch for example, but doable).

    No i meant like uploading files somewhere or attaching stuff to Mails, when i have the folder already open.

    Couldn't yet find a really satisfying solution to that

    Attaching files from Dolphin to mail just works as Drag and Drop (gives you the choice of inline or attachment for images, cool, did not know that). Not sure for firefox, would need a target, but there's always right click, copy location, paste into any file chooser.
