Instead of shutting down why not choose another distro base
Probably a lot of time and work to do so, they've spent a lot of time learning what tweaks Fedora needs.
Why not ride streams coat-tails and switch to arch?
Or Debian. It still supports MIPS64 officially and 68K unofficially. x86 isn't going anywhere for a long time.
I'd not really paid attnetion until this thread and assumed it was an Arch derivative becase of Steam OS. TIL
The tiny bit of gaming I do is in my main install is LMDE using Steam, it works fine.
I went from Windows to arch after waiting for a while for steam to release the desktop os. No real problems gaming aside from anti-cheat.
That would require redoing everything. It would be a massive project, and honestly since there’s already other gaming oriented distros out there, what would be the point? It’s not like Garuda or PopOS is shit.
