Since PopOS isn’t really going anywhere since 2022. I’m looking for a new distro that out of the box works with Nvidia and is optimized for gaming. I looked at Bazzite and CachyOS. Does anyone have experience with these?

    PopOS isn’t going anywhere?

    They’ve been working on their own Desktop Environment (COSMIC) for quite a while, an alpha and a beta already exists and the release is planned for December 11th (source).

      Well, that’s good news (thanks, it’s really new to me)… there where long time nothing really to hear about that. But implementing an over 1.5 year old os? I’m sceptical…

        This toot is a response to a very similar question from someone else.

        Also keep in mind, LTS versions always offer 5 years of support, so the current PopOS 22.04 LTS will receive support until April 2027, and the new PopOS 24.04 LTS will receive updates until April 2029.

          Its been SUUUPER stable on my systems. That and they are doing things slighly different than Ubuntu, which I really like.

            To be fair, your “SUUUPER stable” is another person’s “not really going anywhere”…
