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.

It's better than it used to be but for gaming a Debian base can still get in your way and if you don't mind the change in interface anyway it might be worth checking out Nobora. That's a gaming focused edition of Fedora by Glorious Eggroll, the creator of a really cool version of Valves Proton called ProtonGE and highly regarded in the community! It's basically Fedora with a few modifications and great defaults for gaming and only a Gnome version.
There's also a KDE version of Nobara. I use it myself and it's been great so far.
Cool, I didn't know about that one but I am a Gnome user so I can't say I ever really looked for another spin ether! :)
