Hello everybody, I’m here again because I got a new Asus Tuf a16 and I can’t stand anymore Windows. Since I switched to linux Windows feels like a disease and I don’t want to see it or use it. This laptop has a i7 13000 and an rtx 4050. Which distro should I use? I would like to try Pop Os, I have Mint on other machines. Thank you again because this community has helped me so many times before.

    I would like something in between…BTW I’m installing Bazzyte on another PC.

    If you’re somewhat familiar with uBlue, Bazzite, and immutables, I’d go with Bluefin (Gnome) or Aurora (KDE). All three are uBlue / based off Fedora, so you don’t have to learn a 2nd OS while working on your current OS (Bazzite).

      I fully agree with this comment. Aurora (or Fedora Kinoite, very similar) is the first Linux I have been able to use full time. It should feel familiar and like a breath of fresh air to a longtime windows user. Immutability allows me to tinker without feeling overwhelmed.

      Haven’t tried Bazzite but my understanding is that it works just fine as a deskop OS too!
