New Linux user, here is my use case. Distro recommendations?

Update 1: Thanks for all the responses! I’ve gotten a lot of very good comments saying I should stick with Mint, and that’s sitting comfortably in my top two picks right now. Between new distros, I’m most interested in Arch’s rolling release model, as it provides some benefits for me for reasons I didn’t really get...

Been using arch for a few weeks now, so far it hasn’t been too complicated. Also, using archinstall made the installation reasonably easy

You guys are missing out. Maybe somebody is importing them? I know we have stores for imported american sweets here.

I think this works better with golf. The point of it is to play as little golf as possible

Tips on distro for gaming Swedish

Hi! I’m getting a new laptop any day now and I plan on going back to Linux after maybe a decade on Windows. What works best for gaming nowadays? Is manjaro good for that? I prefer a distro with a nice name but of course that’s not the central thing. I’ll also do some book keeping, writing et cetera but I don’t think...

Ive used Nobara before and was pretty happy with that. Like bazzite it is made for gaming and mostly just works out of the box. I haven’t used bazzite though, so I can’t say which was better in my experience. But VR was still a hassle to set up for me

I think I saw your original post and have to admit that I was a bit confused about the title, but the first thing that came to mind was that you’re talking about ricing, so I get why the mod felt like it was meant to mean ricing

I have not been a part of the Linux community for very long but I’ve heard it a few times already, and since people usually don’t just pick random words as a post title, our brains start to look for any kind of connection a poster might have meant. Maybe an ootion for you would be to use very generic titles? Like “meme” or “image” maybe. I think this was mostly a really unfortunate coincidence, but I get that you’d rather just have a less political feed anyways.

I don’t see how that could happen. You can always choose another distro, or make your own if absolutely necessary. But I understand why you’re concerned.

Every time one of my friends has issues with windows, I tell them to install a real OS.

If they do that, support them in fixing it themselves, instead of just fixing it for them. Give a person a fish, feed them for a day or something…

Hmm yeah, you do have a point there.

I’m doing my best to thank him for being so cooperative at the vet (besides constantly licking his wound, but it’s been a few days now so I took the cone off. So far he seems to behave and not lick it excessively anymore)

Yeah they’re talking about the cable, as that’s usually easier to look at. Also a plug is on the cable, and a socket is on devices.
