I use a Windows and Arch dualboot, but I’m looking to escape Microsoft. I’ve heard good things about both Fedora and Pop!_OS. I’m your average Arch user; I play video games and code. Are Windows VMs suitable for games like Call of Duty on such distros ?

    PopOS. They put ALOT of work into drivers for GPU’s whereas Fedora don’t. Also, Fedora is Red Hat so don’t use them. They are evil.

    Better to be Ubuntu based like PopOS

      I don’t get it, which work? On debian I run apt install nvidia-driver and everything works flawlessly. What do the pop_os driver do better? A GUI for that?

        System76 scheduler for example, or working hybrid GPU setups on laptops thanks to their custom driver.

      Canonical isn’t exactly clean from controversy, and Ubuntu is a rather opinionated distribution. I appreciate how RedHat contributes upstream as much as possible, and how vanilla Fedora is. In my opinion, that makes for a better user experience.
