Context, I use Linux, usually. I have been a user of Debian, Ubuntu, and Fedora for a few years.

Recently, I acquired a decent graphics card (GeForce RTX 4070) and, for others reasons, decided to uninstall my Windows and install Linux.

I saw that Pop!_OS already has an image with everything pre-configured from Nvidia. Is this pre-configuration worth it, are the games more stable on this distribution, or is it the same as installing Nvidia’s proprietary drivers on Manjaro?

I asked this same question on other communities, but only now I found a specific community for gaming on Linux. Thanks.

all the frustrations of linux are out the window for me with Pop. Sure I can go to the terminal and fuck with window managers and edit conf files for hours - but at this point in my life I really just want it to work - and man has Pop just done that. Ubuntu even was still a ton of futzing around (like flatpak, why are they so anti flatpak?!). Pop everything just works!
