Valve is making its SteamOS Linux distribution compatible with more desktop hardware, including Nvidia graphics, so you can build your own Steam Machine.

Debian is too slow with updates for gaming. Idk why not having an upstream is desired, SteamOS has Arch as an upstream. And I was suggesting Red Hat the company and Fedora KDE the distro.
Why is it weird to prefer Kubuntu? Ubuntu is just not as good, it pushes Snaps harder, and it uses GNOME which I don’t like either. I just like Kubuntu a lot more than Ubuntu, and I think many other gamers would agree. Also SteamOS uses KDE Plasma, so it’s the same (except Kubuntu is more up to date, especially with Backports)
I think Kubuntu should be the more popular one, and Ubuntu should be the one that is weird to say.
Not the person you are replying to, but it’s interesting to suggest Kubuntu without mentioning Ubuntu.
I would like the momentum to shift away from Ubuntu and towards Kubuntu as its replacement, because Kubuntu really is better
Its not wierd to prefer kubuntu. I don’t prefer ubuntu or redhat its just that if your talk long time distros redhat and debian are some of the originals and ubuntu and such use them as a base like bazzite does with redhat. I say ubuntu because its the original and core canonical prodcut where as kubuntu is a variation. Your preferences were not wierd to me just the examples for someone worried about linux things not having a long enough and active enough history included an original, long term, core distro and then a more modern one that is downstream a core one. So it was a bit disparate.
Oh they were looking for long term companies like Valve. So I suggested 2 companies.
SteamOS is not a long term distro yet (especially considering v1 is not the same distro even though it has the same name)
Oh I can see using ubuntu over debian then. Still I would have went suse with redhat as they were really the two big enterprise ones. suse was actually the first linux in the aughts were a guy at my workplace through it on a laptop and basically everything worked. I mean it needed more specific drivers to be at its best but it was functional out the gate which was a big deal then.
