I’m on arch currently (with an RX 7600 and R5 3600) and its a good experience, but I find myself wanting many of the .deb packages available on Debian, and trawling the AUR makes me nervous

would Debian testing give me a good gaming experience? I run all of my packages off of flatpak anyway, and would continue to do so on Debian

    I used to run debian testing, but as the branch name implies you will experience the occasional break. If you’re doing straight gaming, Arch seems like the distro to be on. I game and work (dev stuff) on my machines so I run pop_os (with xanmod kernel).

      honestly arch has treated me well, its just that I’m having a certified arch moment trying to get a VPN working and thought about how much easier it is on other distros that dont throw you to the terminal dogs
