If you like the most up to date software but an wasy setup I generally recommend openSUSE Tumbleweed. Its easy to manage, gets the newest software, well supported, and has worked great for boty gaming and hobbiest level programming. Been using it for almost a year eith zero issues.

If you are looking for something more gaming focused and kind of just ready right out of the box, Bazzite is a good call. Its atomic so hard to break, big community so lots of support, and has all the necessary software installed.

Another +1 for Tumbleweed. It’s an simple setup, easy to roll back if needed, and has solid tools like Yast that help manage most aspects of your os.

Glad it’s working out so far! It’s been a rock solid distro for me and hopefully it’s the same for you!

I’d personally recommend openSuse Tumbleweed if you are looking for the most up to date software with an easy setup. Been using it for a solid year now for gaming and general use with zero issues.

If you are looking for stability, and a strong gaming focus I would recommend Bazzite. Its stable, comes with everything basically game ready, and is pretty simple. It does come with the cost of less customization but it’s atomic nature makes it really hard to break. It’s solid for general use as well.

Been using opensuse as my daily os for about 8 months now and I have gotten pretty used to Yast but I am excited to see what Myrlyn brings to the table. Hopefully it fills most of the gaps and offers a smoother experience.

Opensuse tumbleweed for me. the most up to date packages, a btrfs file system so rollbacks are extremely simple, and great tools like yast that make management easy. Favorite distro so far.
