From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Which game do you play ?
Lots, mostly older ones.
Edit
Why downvote? Am I supposed to give a list of every game I play? What does it matter to you?
Yes you have to give the list of your game because a lot of game (specialy multiplayer) doesn't work on linux. See : https://www.protondb.com/ and https://areweanticheatyet.com/
Look, this is gonna sound rude and maybe it is, but I am not a fucking moron and I know that's how it works. I specifically stated that I have used linux in the past, and I can easily google any specific game and find out if it does or doesn't work.
I was asking what distro is best for people to give current opinions on the subject, not because I cannot google very basic cut and dry info. I appreciate that you are trying to help but I am not about to sit here for hours typing the name of every game I might be interested in playing, so that someone else can read it and check it for me, were you about to spend your entire night checking games I listed for me? Of course you weren't, and the entire idea of either of us doing that is insane.
With all due respect, if you have any opinion on which distro is currently the best for gaming feel free to share it, don't waste both our times with useless basic linux info that I already knew about.
