It is also first in the Distrowatch rank

I distro hopped to it from Bazzite a couple of months ago, and I could not be happier.

If you try the installer, be careful when selecting multiples DE/WM as the conflicts were not listed anywhere for the installation process.

Picking a single environment and then adding the others later was what worked for me.

I'm pretty happy with Nobara at the moment, but if I hopped at this point it'd probably be to CachyOS

    Nobara user here too. Glorious Eggroll was defending Lutris dev for using AI & the Nobara exclusive wallpapers right now are AI generated by GE.

    I personally plan to distro hop after reading GE's post. AI bubble can't pop if these people are actively supporting and using them.

    I mean I don't think he is wrong entirely, but wasn't he Lutris guy also VERY hostile to criticism? And just AI generated wallpapers is where I absolutely will draw the line. Just don't have any then, use the Fedora stock ones. Use a black screen. Everything is better than slop.

    I get that AI could be a useful tool, but the never ending list of issues surrounding said tool is tough for me to ignore especially when these tech companies are paying off the government to relax on AI & data center regulation. Surely it isn't that good of a tool to be shoving down our throats. A town not too far from me succeeded in shutting down a data center deal but I know of plenty more that are allowing them to be built.

    Lutris dev did respond by removing the co-author by Claude so nobody will know what part is AI code.
