I just picked up a cheap older gaming PC with a GTX 1050 and and Intel I7 CPU. Trying to decide what distro to load on it for gaming. Curious that others experience is gaming on various distros.

Fedora on my desktop, bazzite (rebadged fedora) on my steam deck.

I'm always a lil surprised how few fedoras I see on these posts. Fedora is chill. Considering the difference between distros is basically a package manager, seems weird the second most bleeding edge distro doesn't get much love.

The package manager is a big deal; it's amazing how little is packaged for Fedora compared to the Ubuntu family.
