Death Generator is an easy generator for changing the text displayed on old game screens.

You should know this because there aren't enough Death Generator memes on Lemmy ;)

I've been using Pop!_OS for a few years now, and it's worked like a dream. Everything works out-of-the-box, and gaming on Linux has never been easier. But it almost works a little too well. Learning Linux as opposed to Windows for all my games was a fun challenge.

But, now that I'm familiar with how to set up any game that needs a little help besides Proton, I'm starting to want to delve into my OS more to see what I can customize, and I think picking a new distro with slightly different architechture will be very nice.

Don't get me wrong, I still want something that works by itself more often than not. But I would love to have something a little more cutting-edge that gives me a little more control.

I started with Linux by installing Kubuntu, and I really miss KDE Plasma. I know Kubuntu is still on Plasma 5, and I've been wanting to find a distro that lets me use Plasma 6.

I've narrowed my choices down to three distros: Nobara, Garuda, and Bazzite.

So far, I've confirmed that Nobara and Garuda come with Plasma 6, but I haven't found that information for Bazzite yet.

So, what do you think about these distros? What are the pros and cons for you?

I'm leaning the most toward Garuda - but I'm worried Arch may be TOO big of a leap. I really just learned that Fedora is not Arch-based, so I know Garuda will be a bit of the odd one out of the three.

TL;DR: Nobara, Garuda, Bazzite - which one is good and do any suck?

EDIT:

Thanks, everyone, for the insightful and helpful comments! From what everyone has said, I've come to find that either CachyOS or Solus will fit my needs best.

CachyOS seems optimized for gaming, while Solus' curated rolling releases seem (to my untrained eye at least) to be somewhat of a step between the way Debian-based distros upgrade and the way Arch-based distros upgrade.

I'd love to hear people's experiences with both of these! I think I'm going to try to dual-boot them and see what setup looks like for both.😄

As the title says, I'm looking to upgrade to a dumb phone. I feel like I get too easily distracted by a smart phone, and I need something that can help mitigate that while still being functional in the modern world.

My research has led me to a few options, but I'm new to this and it can be hard to figure out if they have what I actually need.

I'm looking for a phone with a camera. It needs to be able to send images through text. I also need a 4g connection, GPS, and the ability to use a navigational app. If the only available phones with Maps must have a touchscreen, that is fine, though I would prefer a phone without pretty lights I can touch.

So far, it seems like the Nokia 2780 Flip and the Cat S22 are what I need.

Does anyone have experience with these? Is there a better option that fits my needs?
