Just don’t ask how long it took to get my dGPU working properly :D But thankfully, there were a bunch of helpful folks with tips!
Following the ancient traditions, I’m here to tell you that you picked the wrong distro. 😉
But welcome aboard.
Oh undoubtedly!
Hopefully my partitioning was decent though, so distro-hopping shouldn’t be too hard if I feel like switching (or even running different distros side-by-side?)
I was personally drawn to it because: it’s not Ubuntu; ButterFS seems like a nice safety net; KDE Plasma is sexy AF; noone seems to have anything particularly horrible to say about it.
Why is your chosen distro (obviously) the superior choice?
I’ve been running opensuse for years now. It’s great. Welcome aboard
Mint for gaming, because it’s nice to have a rock-solid OS that doesn’t need much beyond updates in terms of maintenance. Arch for hobby tinkering, because voiding warranties is fun.
Consider Bazzite for gaming?
I’m sure it’s great but I’ve had no issue on Mint.
Mint was 2nd in line on the choice list, so not far off!
Btrfs does not stand for butterFS lmao
But b-tree file system sounds way less fun!
It’s already cemented itself as butterfly system in my mind lol
Welcome to the party pal
Thanks! Next step is getting equivalents for all the software I use and figuring out proton.
Most of them (thankfully) are foss, but I’ve a few without equivalents.
Proton should work well but if you have any questions you might wanna subscribe to

I hope you will find everything you need and that the transition will be smooth!
Hell yeah! Great choice choosing Tumbleweed!!! It’s been my go to for years
There’s nothing like the smell of a freshly installed Linux box.
Fedora Kde version is better
