    I moved from win10 to PikaOS, after misunderstanding why linux mint installed on a USB was unusably slow. It’s fine, but some weird problems. I think Mint can get closed source Nvidia drivers easily enough. The open drivers are fine enough.

    is Bazite better than Pika? is fedora base better than Debian/Arch base?

      unfortunately yes. driver support for any redhat derived Linux is amazing compared to Debian or Arch.

      I stopped using redhat anything after IBM fucked everything up, but it’s still true today.

      Debian could be amazing if it weren’t for the devout “it’s not free, it’s not for me” evangelicals. I mean, I get it, but there is a cost they just don’t concern themselves with and the distro suffers because of it.

        Pika OS has easy access to open and closed nvidia drivers. Though I bailed on mint, I did notice the drivers were 1 click away.

        While the base of debina/arch might be pure, the distros that build on them do so to get porno filthy. apt+flatpack seems to work ok as update/install system.
