Linux Distro Finder

The Linux ecosystem is vast, fragmented, and notoriously opinionated. That is precisely why I built an interactive Linux Distro Finder.

    I’m thinking Arch is definitely for me, then:

    • I prefer bleeding edge. No delay, things haven’t broken my system in a decade, seems like it’s fine for personal use anyway.
    • I don’t need any kernel patches as a heavy gamer, my system can run whatever you throw at it.
    • The AUR seems to have a far simpler and less convoluted process for contributing than GURU.

    Still, I’m curious: what kernel patches do you feel the need to apply, as a gamer?

      You can enable the bleeding edge too, if you like. The repos have multiple versions of packages.

      I need the bigsceen beyond patches for better VR support.

      I’ve never contributed to the AUR, so I can’t really compare. GURU does have a bit of process in exchange for some oversight, but there are completely unmoderated overlays too.

      That’s completely fair! I think pacman is a much nicer to use package manager than emerge, and Arch has a great community :3
