Don't feel bad, it took a bunch of people a long time to find him.

What distro?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

I went straight for Arch but it's Garuda because I'm a baby.

I’m looking for a beginners guide on transitioning to Linux, something that shows me which OS I should go with for my use case. I would love it if the source of the guide is on Lemmy, but I’ll take any recommendations from here.

This is exactly what I was asking for, thank you!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That depends on what your use case is. If you're after gaming, I'd recommend Bazzite

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I wouldn't recommend immutable distros quite yet. There isn't a lot of docs on them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

I mean, their official discourse forums have a fair bit of documentation.

But Bazzite's goal is to make things work so that people can spend their time playing their games instead of reading documentation.

Linux Mint has been around a lot longer and does that well. I don't see any reason to complicate it. If Bazzite becomes more like Android or Chrome OS then maybe. However, as of now it just is confusing.

Check out distrowatch if you wanna stay up to date on the latest releases of your preferred distro(s). I put this here because it's got a side bar that lists the 100 most popular distros queried from their site, which might make it easier to see what's likely got more support or at least a more active community.

Same meme, but Linux is in the cave and spending time irl is the sun
