I didn’t say it was. I posted the quote from the website to clarify.

From their website:
"Update on Your Terms
Pop!_OS provides the latest features and security patches through rolling updates and periodic OS version upgrades, to be performed at your discretion. And if you want a clean slate, the Refresh Install feature resets your OS while preserving the files in your Home folder. "
Heroic Games Launcher and Lutris also support Proton versions, since some games run best with them. But most games simply run with the latest version of Wine or Proton respectively.
Interesting, thanks! Never heard of Nitrux before.
Yes that’s true. I just realised that I apparently tinker too much to use an immutable distro as of now. But I’m definitely keeping an eye on them.
Yes of course, that’s always an option. I was just trying to look over my Mint horizon and check out other distros and how they work. Exciting!
I like that article, I’m in a similar position at the moment. I’ve been using Mint on my Nvidia machine for a long time now, but with the new Mint 22 update that’s also based on Ubuntu 24.04, I’m facing similar issues and so I’ve done some distrohopping over the past couple of weeks. I’ve tried Aurora/Bazzite and Nobara as Fedora based distros, Garuda and CachyOS as Arch based ones, OpenSUSE Tumbleweed and probably something else I can’t remember right now. All of them were great distros but had certain flaws that were offputting somehow. And I’m in no rush, since Mint 21.3 is still supported for a while.
I’m still open to suggestions what to try next! I’m getting faster and faster with fresh installs :)
Same discussion from 4 days ago with the link to the respective Github issue: https://lemmy.ml/post/18936433
Not sure about that popularity comment, it’s also available on Windows and I know of many people who have been using it for years instead of the crappy Epic Store. And yes, it works great for GOG.

Invidious is facing the same problem, there’s issues on both Githubs since June.
The game itself was for me mid - not good not bad, but the ending? I can’t believe no one mentioned it yet, that was the most impressive ending I’ve experienced in a game ever. Without spoilers, for those who played it, the piano notes and then darkness, I couldn’t believe it, it was so good.
Thank you, that’s very helpful. I will have to think about it - it comes down to a question of convenience vs. “best” security possible.
Oh yes, that’s entirely my own fault. I first installed Aurora, then Steam as Flapak and later rebased to Bazzite. It was all just for trying stuff out, on my main machine, the install will be clean.
Oh I think I’ve found my answer, it was about SELinux being disabled. Now it says on their official website: "SELinux:
– We have replaced SELinux with AppArmor (AppArmor is used in Ubuntu and OpenSUSE) as we find it to be more user-friendly, less intrusive, and easier to write policies for. You will still see some SELinux packages as they are required to keep Fedora compatibility and not break package dependencies."
I am very interested in what you are saying. I’ve been trying Bazzite for a while now and I ran into some quirks I couldn’t resolve - tiny stuff, that’s mainly a small inconvenience like not being able to put icons on the desktop with Steam due to it being Flatpak and Valve not having enabled that specific option) -
BUT -
I’ve also tried Nobara then was kinda put off by people saying something along the lines, that GE disabled some security features for better performance (and since it was a distro for personal use at first) and I tried to search for the details, but came up empty. Could you say a bit more about this or where I could find more info, please? Cause I’m using my distro as daily driver and not only for gaming, so it got me worried a little.
A bad time to install Tumbleweed? I just downloaded the ISO today, not kidding.
Thank you for this. I think it’s good practice not to post plain codes but to obfuscate them in some way so that they are not snatched by bots. Not sure if this a big problem on Lemmy though.
