I’ve just gotten a new amd card and i’m wondering wether i should use cachyos (arch) or nobara (fedora) i’m comfortable in both, but i want one that will be stable and to not have to constantly tweak with things when they break. My game catalog consists of steam and various emulators The (unofficial) subreddit dedicated to discussion of gloriouseggroll’s nobara linux distro, based off of fedora and designed to make gaming as a fast and simple as possible.
Nobara need money - YouTube
Nobara is a derivative distro based on fedora
It has the optimizations done by gloriouseggroll and it maintains even its own repositories
I have not tried it, but because of ge my guess is this one is the most optimized for games Afaik it is not using an immutable filesystem, so it is able to break You rely on a very small team of maintainers, so i don't consider this distro future proof. When nobara died, gege had a guy jump in just to deliver some exposition on how nobara is ded but there is a tiny 1% chance shes not dead ok bye
Following litterary law, that must mean that moment is meaningfull and will be relevant. As is the usual with linux installing the distro is the first challenge, i googled a bit and found that nobara was a pretty recommended distro for gaming, something about the author being a big deal in the community, so i went for that. Nobara project does offer stock gnome along side a modified gnome (official) and kde plasma versions In my testing, i found nobara to be more stable than pop, but each setup and use case is different.
I then finished the setup, rebooted the laptop, opened windows, made the command like in the tutorial, opened bios to start nobara ahead of windows and rebooted the computer
Anybody know how to fix it So, nobara is more of a standard linux experience, chimera is more of a console experience, and bazzite is a happy medium At the time i was poking around, bazzite was the only one that officially the lego. Imo nobara is one of the most complete fedora unofficial spins available
I’ve bounced around distros for years and while i test others, nobara is my daily driver and primary gaming os
