I’ve just gotten a new amd card and i’m wondering wether i should use cachyos (arch) or nobara (fedora) i’m comfortable in both, but i want one that will be stable and to not have to constantly tweak with things when they break. My game catalog consists of steam and various emulators As is the usual with linux installing the distro is the first challenge, i googled a bit and found that nobara was a pretty recommended distro for gaming, something about the author being a big deal in the community, so i went for that.
Nobara Kugisaki | Dopple.ai
The (unofficial) subreddit dedicated to discussion of gloriouseggroll’s nobara linux distro, based off of fedora and designed to make gaming as a fast and simple as possible.
When nobara died, gege had a guy jump in just to deliver some exposition on how nobara is ded but there is a tiny 1% chance shes not dead ok bye
Following litterary law, that must mean that moment is meaningfull and will be relevant. Nobara is a derivative distro based on fedora It has the optimizations done by gloriouseggroll and it maintains even its own repositories I have not tried it, but because of ge my guess is this one is the most optimized for games
Afaik it is not using an immutable filesystem, so it is able to break You rely on a very small team of maintainers, so i don't consider this distro future proof. So, nobara is more of a standard linux experience, chimera is more of a console experience, and bazzite is a happy medium At the time i was poking around, bazzite was the only one that officially the lego.
Nobara has been done dirty ever since her first introduction
Her summation of losses includes: Nobara project does offer stock gnome along side a modified gnome (official) and kde plasma versions In my testing, i found nobara to be more stable than pop, but each setup and use case is different. Imo nobara is one of the most complete fedora unofficial spins available
I’ve bounced around distros for years and while i test others, nobara is my daily driver and primary gaming os
