I’m a long time Linux user that hasn’t gamed much in years. Previously I tried it by installing wine and going from there but I had to manually hunt for DLLs so I gave up. So I have recently installed Bazzite and stuff that I want is working :) But I’m not a huge fan of Bazzite outside of gaming. So how does one reasonably setup gaming stuff on another distro? Is flatpak the way? On Ubuntu you have many different ways to install Steam for example. What about Proton? I saw people wrangling multiple versions for different games.
If someone can point me to somewhere where tech landscape is explained it would be great.
Not an expert either, but Nobara does all the pre-installation stuff and it’s a pretty decent distro outside of gaming too. Might be worth a shot (it’s Fedora based)
Friend installed it years ago for me, I have been running Nobara ever since. I have problems, but they are less than windows and I can actually solve them/do anything about it. I forget that I’m running Linux when playing games, I don’t even check compatibility anymore
