Windows 11, but I just finally got around to switching back to Garuda Linux last night. We'll see how it goes. Still have a lot of headaches and assorted annoyances to work out.
Why not a more stable and proven distro like Fedora workstation? I game on steam on an old P1 running Fedora 40 if that's of any worth.
Fedora has given me more headaches than arch has, per unit time. At least in arch I can fix the problems myself without looking at obscure bug reports.
It was a long time ago though, so I may be looking through anti-rose tinted glasses, misremembering, or misjudging my experience.
I like to tinker with my system.
NOTE: I'm not the person you were questioning.
I went from Debian to Arch to Alpine to Fedora, Fedora 38 was very much plug and play as far as drivers for the used laptops I buy. Been rock solid ever since.
Distro hop and try it out, a live image is only a dd command away.
I know it was. Drivers are simple for my system anyways.
I care more about the AUR and system customisation. Fedora has nothing like aconfmgr that I'm aware of. Nix's system seems to be better but even more complicated.
I just use SaltStack for that
Sounds complicated for a personal machine. Looks similar to ansible/etc. Learning curve.
