Random PSA: set your bios to sleep state linux.
Hannah Montana Linux, btw
I made this mistake once and every comment was a different distro, they were all upvoted, and everyone was saying good things about all of them.
I just went with Ubuntu.
Secureblue.
There is a slight difference there. You don't ask the first two because social norms have pressured those groups to focus on those elements to unhealthy levels, so asking is, on a certain level, disrupting the peace of the other person by touching a sensitive area. The third is not. The third is poking your own peace because whether they have an extreme loyalty to one or a nuanced understanding of why different ones are better suited to different use cases, you are about to be talked at for an hour about it.
All of them except the wrong one.
Excuse me sir or madam, do you have time to talk about our lord and savior NixOS?
no one likes a smart guy. you can keep your dot files /s
die heretic
My favourite Linux is the kernel
That's easy, it's Debian
You either use Debian, or Debian With Extra Steps, so I went with Debian
Yeah why would someone ask a question when the answer is so obvious?
Pretty much any distro can do any of the things Windows/Mac users are hoping a computer can do. So just pick one and stick with it. Once you're familiar with Linux, the benefits/drawbacks of each distro will become clearer, and you'll be able to make an informed decision. People will tell you "Arch is more lightweight than Mint" but compared to Windows/MacOS, all Linux distros are going to feel blazingly fast and lightweight. The only decent advice is, if you are just starting out and you have an Nvidia GPU, use a distro that sets that up for you automatically. It's not super complicated to set up, but it's definitely going to feel like a foreign experience the first time.

Don't forget Biebian
Hey can y'all help me out? I wanna start switching over, but I need a beginner friendly distro that can work well with my 2070 super for gaming. I need something simple to set up or I'll get ADHD paralysis and never do it.
I'd also love if it worked well with my Valve Index, but if that still has a lot of issues across the board I may still have to dual boot :c
i started on mint, with a 2080, played through hl alyx (with one weird issue - when i had my old xbox 360 controller plugged in, alyx and vr home couldn't start, but that was a few years ago, maybe it's not an issue any more).
which is to say, the index is not the issue, most vr games don't have a native linux version, so you have to rely on proton, and especially with nvidia cards they're far from guaranteed to run
Thanks so much!
If you like the color green pick linux mint. If you like blue pick zorinOS.
If you really want to use arch as noob pick Garuda.
80% of recommendations will be an Ubuntu/debian child so pick whatever looks good and works. See the first two.
If you really don't like Ubuntu/deb check out Fedora. If you want a big screen steam mode pick bazzite.
Thank you!
Mint. It started as the beginner friendly distro and it's becoming the "main" distro as of late.
Thanks!
Given they have an Nvidia and want stuff like the Valve Index to work (so in the best case to have all those super new drivers, libraries installed and stuff) it should be a distro that comes with a lot preconfigured, like the Nvidia driver.
I've heard a lot of good things about Bazzite in this regard.
Thanks for adding onto this!
The one you fucking feel like using. God, stop trying to make tribes mandatory.
Never heard of it. What packaging system does Tribes use?
The wrong one, obviously!

I don't have time to mess around with Arch or customizing things. I tried a couple live boots and went with Mint. Spent 2 hours picking a theme, wallpaper, and menu icon. Boom, done.
i only use this linux
Shame on all of you for not knowing Hanna Montana Linux is the best possible OS ever.
I thought that it's a fact everyone using Linux just instinctively knew.
