  • debian is not that up to date, so it might cause problems for gaming

    neither are ubuntu-based debian-based distros (mint, pop_os)

    debian cycle is 2 years, ubuntu cycle is 6 months

    opensuse tumbleweed is similar to debian but is very up to date (and less unstable than other rolling release distros), it updates packages in the repo every 6 hours i think






  • yeah you should

    you should definitely try it out and see if you like it; try various distros and desktops

    the distros id recommend are fedora (simply good), opensuse tubleweed (versatile and unobtrusive), cachyos (designed for gaming), bazzite (fedora-based steamOS clone, designed for gaming), or mint (very easy), and the de id recommend is kde plasma

    can keep windows on a separate drive to boot for the games that dont work (and in case u want to switch back)

    but if ur pirating, those wont be kernel anticheat games, which are the main offenders











  • on KDE Plasma on Linux (and BSDs), the Power Management widget or taskbar item has a toggle to Manually Block Sleep and Screen Locking, which prevents time-based and lid-based sleep and locking. in the settings app at System > Power Management you can set what to do when the lid is closed, with separate profiles for when plugged in, on battery, or on low battery. kde is very customizable and fully featured, would recommend
