    And why is Arch more popular than Ubuntu? Surely SteamOS counts as something different, so it’s probably not that.

    I’m not a fan of Ubuntu, but it’s a very popular beginner OS, and I’d assume a lot of Linux gamers are lazy and use the thing that gets them into a game the fastest.

      Arch is listed as a whole, while Ubuntu is a specific version (22.04 LTS).

      I’ve had so many issues with Ubuntu in the last few years compared to other distros that honestly I wouldn’t feel comfortable recommending it as a beginner distro anymore.
