How much is the speed drop from translation using Proton? Is it so big or just small? Hows the performance of cartoonish Windows only games? And whats your hardware and how much is the price? I’m sorry but I cannot test it myself because I’m still on my mobile. Can you also tell about how many games are compatible with Proton? What about non-popular games?
Mint is a good suggestion for a new user. An underrated distro, but solid, simple, and works well for any purpose.
Underrated? It’s the single most recommended distro for beginners.
i mostly see immutables recommended to beginners on here
I’d also suggest Mint for getting started. I’ve been using it for several years with minimal hassle.
Isn’t mint the most used distro after like catchyos?
“Top 10 most popular Linux distro” type articles I’ve seen usually list Mint near the top.
I don’t agree with the sentiment that Linux Mint is underrated either. As you note, it is quite popular and is mentioned a lot in the discourse.
However, I don’t think that CachyOS and Linux Mint are the most popular distros; that undoubtedly goes to Ubuntu. And, if anything, I’d think that Linux Mint is more popular than CachyOS.
Yet, if we’d limit it to the distros used by gamers, then CachyOS probably does take the crown for most used distro (aside from SteamOS). At least, there are metrics that suggest as such.
