I'm sick of Mint and Cinnanom bros.
Which distro do i upgrade now?

I'm a gamer and 4channer for most. Best distro for these two things
>>
sorry, mint is already the best there's nothing better
>>
Install Gentoo

cinnamon is peak, the only issue mint has is that it's based on ubuntu/debian

Gamer. Channer. Gentleman.

what's the alternative? KDE? XFCE? GNOME? Lmao

what’s wrong with xfce? genuine question, of those three xfce seems the most simple and modular even if limited
>>
>>108872125
fedora idk
>>
>desktop environment
KDE, no question. It will always be on top of gaming features and it's Valve's choice. How it handles compositing will give you the least trouble compared to everything else.
>distro
Fedora, Arch, CachyOS. KDE likes a fast updoot schedule.
>>
Ubuntu.
GNOME.
>>
>>108872277
Wayland Afterstep when

Retard.
>>108872125
If you're a gamer then you need something with Wayland support, Plasma in particular. Fedora KDE or CachyOS KDE are both great.
>>
>>108872125
cachyos with kde is literally the endgame for 99% of the population
the remaining 1% are autismos who obsess over the vain minimalism of arch and gentoo

I play vidya on mint and don’t have issues, if you have a problem with package availability maybe look into distrobox or bedrock linux

Gook roastie has a meltdown because White men see her race as the lowest hanging fruit.

The Gook roastie in your picture is extremely ironic, as she tries to look White with the wig, make-up and contact lenses.

recently swapped to cachy after a year of mint and i like it so far :-) u just gotta remember to write pacman instead of apt
>>
>>108872125
Plot twist. That's a man.
>>
>>108872125
Lots of people love Catchy, I've never tried it but run Nobara which is basically the same thing but it comes with office stuff (libre office) and is fedora based instead of arch.

Bazzite is pretty solid too but you won't be doing much tweaking with your settings, it's immutable.

>If you're a gamer then you need something with Wayland support
incorrect. XLibre is pretty damn great for DEs that are still on Xorg. LXQT is excelent for avoiding high system resource usage so that your games get everything. all you need is picom to fine tune screen tearing.

>>108872125
honestly cathartic that the nignog that created this meme phrase got fafo'd for trying to steal some guy's girlfriend in front of him

anyway, get Omarchy if you value flexibility and your time

Mint's greatness stems from Ubuntu, so Ubuntu is a good replacement. PikaOS is a very underated distro, basically cachyOS but Debian based.
Personally I like staying on the Debian/apt ecosystem. But Fedora and its forks are cool too. And CachyOS is the best Arch based distro by three miles.
>>
>>108872125
Just try a bunch of other dumb shit and eventually switch back to Mint because its objectively the best for any and every legitimate usecase. That's what everyone does.

Mint is the distro for using a computer, everything else is either inferior, or hobbyist tinkertoys. I say this from Arch right now, which I only use because I am a hobbyist and retarded nerd, there is no practical benefit.

nothing. xfce is the goat DE
>>
>>108872141
mint is slow laggy and doesn't fuckinn work something broke everyday wifi, bluetooth and I don't want to spend hours fixing this shit ,linux works as a direct cli and when you are workin on remote servers , can't use it for general purpose or distros build over it fuck this shit back to windows I go
>>
>>108878747
now try to say it in an intelligible language.
>>
>>108872125
Guix is best for gaming
>>
>>108878735
lxde is the goat de thoughbeit. But you shouldn't use DEs in the first place, but tiling WMs
>>
>>108872125
arch. why would anyone use anything else? nothing else even is linux. setting it up and troubleshooting isn't retarded anymore when you can paste wiki links into notebooklm and give antigravity access to your everything and say "/goal fix this shi don't stop until ur done use agentic harness to run urself NIGGER!"

use arch with kde or hyprland. kde if you play games.
>>
>>108878214
>incorrect. XLibre is pretty damn great
Does it have HDR yet? VRR? Per-screen refresh rates?

I got an absolute piece of shit 10+yo 1366x768 laptop that runs Debian 13 KDE like a dream, I have it on power saver mode and it's extremely responsive.

I got a much newer tablet with far superior specs that brutally mog the laptop, but it's also got a 1920x1200 screen. For some reason, I have to set my performance profile to performance to get decent responsiveness on this tablet at maximum resolution. And obviously lowering the resolution looks like shite. Is this a Fedora issue or a Plasma issue?
>>
>>108881790
Apparently the GUI scaling is slowing my tablet down. Runs fine at 100% scaling but I need it at 150%...
>>
>>108872141
>systemd
Nah. What's the non-systemd equivalent of Mint?
