  • I’m using Arch on my main machine since it is primarily for gaming where a lot of the focus is on Arch and its derivatives. A lot of guides are made for it and Valve’s SteamOS is Arch based. For software development not having to use Docker’s own repo is really nice to have as the Arch version is up to date to a point where I haven’t noticed any issues with guides or anything

    However, Tumbleweed looks very intriguing and I’m seriously considering it for my Framework 16 once I get it as it’ll be a machine to get work done, not mess around and play games

    Personally I haven’t had much luck with distrobox, but that was mostly with Pgadmin 4. Its package in the arch community repo has been broken for years



  • While I’m using AMD, I have had no issues with Nvidia on Arch using X before I switched earlier this year. One just installs the nvidia or nvidia-dkms package. My main reasons to switch were I had a 1060 6GB and it was getting old, AMD had a better price and if I’m keeping this one as long as my last I wanted to be certain wayland support was good even though I don’t use it right now
