So I was thinking of switching my desktop to linux. I have been running fedora on my laptop for 3 years and I really like it. My main question now is just what distro works best for gaming (considering my specs) and can I use VMs in any of the gaming oriented ones (mostly because I don't wanna keep dual booting).
Edit: I have gone with Bazzite for now and it seems to be working fine. Some games don't rrally work acceptably (I expected that) so I will keep dual booting for a while.
make sure first that it isn't issue with specific games, some may require some proton flags to be set for them to behave properly. Or just newer/older proton/wine.
in general worth a try to switch the compatibility thingy (technical term),
steam, in game's properties:
but similar option is in lutris/heroic too.
God damn I literally just did a clean install of fedora 42 and I cannot even get past the stupid setup stage. They changed it so now you choose everything after installing and I cannot get past the timezone select screen. It just freezes
I seem to recall a bug (but maybe it's only Fedora Silverblue) but anyways try not selecting the option to install 3rd party software, and see if the set up lets you continue. You can then make the selection to enable 3rd party software the first time you open the Software app.
I don't recall that option being available in the setup
It is, I was playing around with it in a VM just the other day.
