  • I would recommend what looks most promising/fun to you.

    personally I am staying with the “big ones”. on my gaming pc I have installed fedora with kde. on my notebook(with touchscreen) I am trying Debian with gnome and eventually arch when I am clear on how I want my system to be exactly

    for work and network stuff I use debian with kde.

    If you are unsure I’d recommend either debian or fedora with kde. Ubuntu isn’t really something for me because snap is really annoying (apt installs sometimes default to snap but don’t tell you outright)



  • I have noticed a weird issue. Maybe I am just dumb but every time I press and hold the steam button the screen goes black and stays like this until I force a restart. If I press and hold the steam button during the black screen phase, i get a glimpse of the shortcut menu. as soon as i let go of the button or use other inputs (b Button for example) the screen goes black again even if I am holding down the steam button.

    Is anyone else having this issue, too?


  • which is ok. the cool thing about switching to linux is that you don’t have to take risks(e.g. buy an expensive os/hardware) so you can try it out, switch back, wait a bit and try again. I did that and last year was the year of the linux Desktop for me (also thanks to the steam deck)
