This might not be worthy of this community, it’s what I’ve got. I think this screenshot still looks alright, though. Hope you enjoy.

    I didn’t notice any performance changes in gaming myself, with the one exception of the Metro games, which had really bad screen tearing. That said I have an NVIDIA gfx card sooooo…

    Definitely having just G-eggroll as the sole maintainer of Nobara is a bit worrying. The reason I’m switching back to Garuda is definitely about workload of Arch over Fedora. I’m also a big fan of not spending 8hrs manually configuring Arch.

      That was my concern with Nobara as well. That and the wonky patching process (on the command line), a footgun I used on myself recently. I’ve been on Fedora for a few months. Maybe it is time to give Garuda a go.

        I’d definitely recommend it if gaming is something you do, as Garuda is a gaming-centric distro. I’ve had a decent experience with Nobara, but think I’m going to move away from it other than on my Surface.

          It is, yeah. Nobara has been great for the most part. Though it isn’t as polished as I’ve found Mint to be (without more contributors I don’t see how it could be). But really the only reason I switched was for GPU support that the 6.x kernel provided.

            I haven’t tried mint in, I think, about a decade…but Garuda is very polished, there’s definitely some occasional weirdness but that’s something to be expected in any distro that’s relatively new. I’ve had great experiences with the official forums, any time I had an issue I wasn’t able to figure out on my own and made a post, I’d have one or more of the devs popin and give either a solution or endorse one that had been given by a different user.
            Thinking about it,I’m definitely going to switch back this weekend. Might even stop being lazy and integrate the surface stuff into Garuda’s kernel…might.
