From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Same here. Ir's very bloated. You can decide on what to install,but if you do install all that bloat,you need to be prepared. I tried their AMD GPU overclock tool and after a got a black screen, I ended up with missing packages. Immediately went back to Arch.

I think I tried emudeck and it wouldn't install. But that wasn't their issue (turned out to be a regression upstream).

I think I had stuttering sound in audio too. But that's via HDMI.

Spdif no issue

I also used another gaming distro though so might be confusing them

They should absolutely keep developing it. It will only get better, and I'm a unique case because I've been using Linux probably since 1998 or so.

But I feel they make things a bit more custom, and it will only get better. It has a lot of potential, and is probably the best option already for many people
