  • It greatly depends on what type of experience you are looking for. Nobara is based on Fedora with pre installed stuff tailored for gaming and content creation, it’s very configurable as most Linux distros.

    Bazzite and Chimera are more SteamOS/Console -esque experience tailored. Still configurable but more limited since they are immutable distros. Bazzite is based on Fedora and Chimera on Arch.

    IMO if you only plan to game or mainly game on the PC either Bazzite or Chimera are good options. If you also intend to use the PC as a workstation I would go with Nobara, which is my case.

    PS: For those looking for a friendlier Arch experience try Manjaro.


  • I understand your struggle. As others said, Arch is not a beginner friendly distro.

    I would suggest trying gaming tailored distros like Nobara, Chimera or Bazzite and see how you feel about them. Don’t install your full steam library during these testing period, try games separately and prioritize the games you play the most.

    Learning involves trial and error and the Linux ecosystem has a lot of that.

    In the end it’s ok if you say This is not for me right now
