When it comes to gaming on Linux, many many many people’s understanding stil remains in the Jurassic era. For the past few years, I’ve been using Linux as my main operating system for both work and gaming. From my personal experience, the gaming experience on Linux is far superior to that of macOS and Windows. I know I know…whenever I mention this, there are always some old-school individuals who come out to say that Linux’s driver configuration is complex, its game support is not rich enough, and its compatibility issues are significant, among other problems. In this article, I will directly address these issues and let everyone understand how much the gaming experience on Linux has developed by 2025.

    Really? I don’t see how that can possibly be true. I could see new AMD and Intel drivers maybe causing trouble because their drivers would be in newer kernels and Mint runs a slightly older kernel, but Nvidia doesn’t matter nearly as much.

    Do you have a source for that? If it’s true, I’ll consider changing my recommendation, but I’ll want to know why first.

    Each distro has its strengths and weaknesses.

    Sure, but most people won’t notice the differences. If you want to browse the web, play games, and use a few programs, any Linux distro will work. You need to know Linux pretty well before the differences start to matter.

    I’ve been using Linux for a long time (nearly 20 years) and have tried several distros. I have my preferences, but I could get everything I need on pretty much any distro. They’re more similar than they are different, unless you’re talking about something exotic like Alpine.
