It’s time once again to bang my head against the wall of Linux gaming to see if I can make the switch from Windows. What’s the flavor of the month for gaming distros for a Windows native that’s not a moron but also wants something that just works once its set up?

Bonus points if you can point me at resources for how to put Linux on my Windows box as a dual boot without breaking my Windows installation.

EDIT - Tried Mint and Nobara and neither could figure out how to dual boot with Windows on a machine with two physical drives. I’m sure if I had a CS degree I could figure it out in short order but a little googling and messing around trying different things didn’t work so I think I’m done. Maybe next time, Linux.

I can second Tumbleweed. Super stable “just works” distro. If Nobara didn’t come packaged with almost everything I need, it would be my go to OS
