        How does mint have “poor gaming support”?

        1. The last time they tried it was ages ago, or they followed some old instructions.
        2. They’re trying to play a game that has serious anticheat aspirations and doesn’t run well on linux
        3. They want to play roblox.

      It’s funny to see so many different echochambers at play. 🤭 No offense of course.

      Mint is still by far the most popular distro, I even saw Goodwill selling computers with it now. Ubuntu is also widely used, apparently it’s really popular in India(?). Meanwhile in hackspaces NixOS and Arch are super popular. Personally I like OpenSuse, therefore hear a lot about that family of distros. We’re existing in a super diverse ecosystem.

      It’s just annoying when people recommend stuff not because they think it’s the best pick for the person who’s asking, but because they like it best (I swear on my grave, I god damn saw people recommending NixOS for elders and Arch Linux for productivity environments that must be 100% stable). Therefore I made a meme about it.
