Keep noticing that when taking about Linux distro recommendations (on Reddit) users recommend Mint and Ubuntu for gaming.
Now don’t get me wrong, they’re great distros and with a bit of work are great for games, but I feel like theres better recommendations for new users looking into getting into gaming on linux.
Mint lets you install Nvidia drivers pretty easily nowadays. My surfacebook 2 has a 1050 mobile built in and it couldn’t have been easier to get the drivers installed.
Ubuntu I don’t recommend, nor Pop_OS simply due to Snaps. Where as flatpak is the standard built into Mint.
Snap is installed, but the default app store, Pop!_Shop, only has .deb and flatpak that I’ve seen.
