Followup to why you should switch to Nobara Linux. Also, some scripts I’ve compiled for distro hopping the fedora flavors.

Thanks for your input. Part of the reason I'm focusing on Fedora and Fedora derived distros right now is specifically for that reason. To give new people a path to gaming success. Windows 10 and 11 basically proved Microsoft is going to monetize at any cost. Gaming has been the primary reason people stay on Windows, and that isn't necessary anymore.

I think Nobara is the distro for gaming. its easy to use, has a brilliant and supportive discord thats friendly to the new/unknowing, and all the gaming headaches (like steamtinkerlaunch that require compiling from scratch on a certain other popular semi-default distro) are all ready and raring to go, either from the get go, or via a simple and easy tool.

I've been on linux for a relatively short time. only 6ish+ years? hard to remember off the top of my head. and Nobara is legitimately the best experience I've had out of everything I've tried.

Not going to base my personality around or become obnoxious about pushing it, but its definite the most click and go distro for gaming that i've seen.
