    Lets be real, Ubuntu/Arch is the way to go. Debian is just not present on gaming set ups, Arch is close to what Valve is doing and Ubuntu has like 69 downstream distros.

      You are mistaken.

      It’s not popular in that arena, but it’s definitely present.

      I guess my Steam install and few games on Debian are not present.

      To be fair, they’re not AAA games, so they’re just not real games anyway. Gaming is for people with bleeding edge software and super recent hardware, obviously. /s

      Ubuntu is in the same boat, 90% of its users are using the LTS version.

      Arch isn’t that good of a choice either simply because it’s a DIY distro. It’s not meant to be complete out of the box and may require tweaks and making choices that Gamers Nexus is explicitly trying to avoid.
