So I was thinking of switching my desktop to linux. I have been running fedora on my laptop for 3 years and I really like it. My main question now is just what distro works best for gaming (considering my specs) and can I use VMs in any of the gaming oriented ones (mostly because I don’t wanna keep dual booting).

Edit: I have gone with Bazzite for now and it seems to be working fine. Some games don’t rrally work acceptably (I expected that) so I will keep dual booting for a while.

    The only thing that kept me booting windows for gaming was destiny 2, which choses not to support running on linux.

    The current expansion “edge of fate” is terrible though, so it’s full time linux gaming for me.

      I really hope Bungie changes their stance at some point. The new portal in Edge of Fate seems perfect for quick sessions on a Steam Deck, if nothing else.

        the portal is a good idea, but how they tied (or rather didn’t) it to the rest of the game is currently terrible.
        the whole game feels like a broken plate that someone glued together again… So, i would not expect great things from them currently…
