I'm switching from Microsucks to Linux in my last Windows machine. It's an AMD gaming rig with a super wide screen curved monitor, but I don't know if I want to create another Arch build just because I get lazy on maintenance and dealing with Pacman mirror updates, etc. Between popOS and Bazzite or something else, does anyone have any preferences in terms of lazy management? I prefer clean Gnome 2 interfaces or Hyprland, but would rather have a DE instead of compositor for this one.

after almost a year of running popOS, a random update borked a lot of my display settings. deffo a one time issue, but i did wanna switch to bazzite anyway and i’ve been liking it a lot so far. it’s my go-to for recommendations now, very no-nonsense!

Thanks for letting me know! Is it Debian, Red Hat, Arch based or something else? Are you running AMD or Nvidia graphics?

[–] yuri@pawb.social 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

it’s either fedora kinoite or fedora silverblue based depending on whether you go with the plasma or gnome version. i just built this pc, it’s all AMD and it’s worked perfect out the box so far.

Fedora is Red Hat. But yeah, I can dig Fedora. I'll just resolve to try what you did.
