After leaving Windows behind earlier this year, I spent months exploring Linux and testing everything from Solus to NixOS to SteamOS. Each distro had its own personality, quirks, and challenges, but one thing became clear: they can all game.
In this video, I look back at every Linux distro I tried, from base systems like Debian and Arch to gaming-focused ones like Nobara, Regata, and then CachyOS. I share what worked, what didn’t, and reveal which distro stood out as the best for gaming and content creation. Spoiler: It's the one that works best for you and your system!
If you’re new to Linux or just wondering which distro feels most complete without endless tinkering, this one is for you.
