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 ?

    I have used many Linux distros, Old-school RedHat (floppy days) Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Mint, etc. I used to like messing around with the kernel and configs, etc. Now I just want something that works so that I can get to work. I installed Pop_OS on an old Microsoft Surface about 3 weeks ago and I have been very impressed. It was simple to install, has a pleasing interface design, and no bloat software. I’m going to keep using it for my desktop and highly recommend it.

      Same here. Used to run Arch and got really into tinkering with the kernel and wm configs. I’m also incredibly lazy and I just want things to work. I switched to pop_os and haven’t really looked back (well…sort of… there’s a voice in the back of my head screaming at me to switch to Endeavour, but I’ve been ignoring it for now)
