Distro Recommendations (kbin.earth)

I have a home built PC that I want to get off Windows 11.

Specs:

  • Ryzen 3700X, upgrading to a 5800X3D soon
  • RTX 2080 Super
  • 500GB NVME for OS, 2TB SATA SSD for files, programs, etc.
  • 1440p Ultrawide monitor
  • an 8bitdo Ultimate controller

Usage:

  • I usually play indie games, emulators, and occasional AAA games. Most of my library is on Steam, with some games on GOG, e.g. Cyberpunk.
  • I have an original Steam Link in my living room, and I use it to play games from my PC on the couch. Does Steam on Linux even support this?
  • I also write game mods, so I need a distro that is a good fit for software development (C++, Python, and Lisp).
  • Random miscellany: I use mullvad VPN, stream movies from a friend's plex server, and use an SFTP client to back up photos and videos from my phone.

I've been an on/off Linux user in the past, so I know my way around basic/intermediate terminal usage and configuration. Buuuut every previous attempt to move to Linux ended in disaster, so I have little patience for asterisks, strings attached, etc. If you're offering a distro I've never heard of before, you're probably gonna be hard pressed to convince me.

Thanks for the help!

No they are definitely left-wing.

Yes I have seen that article, but if you look at the video that is attached to the article it is very clear that he is talking about....

  • Migrants that commit crimes
  • Migrants that does not want and actively avoid, being part of Swedish society

There is nothing right or left wing about throwing out people who commit murder och rape. That is pretty standard in most parts om the world even, because a nation has no obligation to let non-citizen criminals stay in the country.

ÖP is vert much on the workers side, and have pretty vocally advocated for a smaller but stronger state and shorter work week.

That's just veiled racism, dude. Racists always couch it like that. Don't fall for it.

So you mean ignore what they're actually saying and believe random leftists online? xD

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No I'm paying attention to what they're saying, it's full of racist dog whistles

[–] Hiplobbe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Like what? Seems like it does not matter what a person says if you have already labeled them a racist.

Migrants that does not want and actively avoid, being part of Swedish society

You're not going to find many leftists that aren't vehemently against deporting people for not integrating, especially leftists who believe in abolishing borders.
