i know that some games arent compitable and been to the site that shows which game is and which is not, and i also know most mods dont work on linux version which is a boomer (skyrim and rimworld mostly)?
so for gamers, why did you change to linux being a mostly a gamer?
Every distro I listed is awesome in it’s own ways. Arch is great, but you will break it.
Arch is for people that want to learn Linux enough to fix it and/or tailor it down to the last package, if you want something that just works no matter what, it’s not for you.
However, if you have a second PC and your activities are not critically important and you have lots of free time, it’s great to learn how Linux works.
Having 2 drives also works fine. Just don’t dual boot on the same drive, as that will eventually result in being unable to boot.
