    Oh right, Pop ships with the non-FOSS Nvidia drivers and the only thing you should look out for is not updating those first thing in the morning because you will need to restart the PC right after.

    I dont really play AAA-games, so your mileage may vary.

    Gaming is great. I mainly use Steam with Proton which gives me most games (see protondb) and otherwise Look out if the games are available on Linux in any way, which a lot are. The exception being some restrictive multiplayer titles using BattleEye or EasyAnticheat or stuff.

    A little overview of what I am playing/played recently:

    • Minecraft (PolyMC as Modmanager)
    • Slay the Spire
    • Stardew Valley(also modded)
    • Dwarf Fortress
    • Darktide
    • VVVVVV
    • Orion: Prelude
    • Tabletop Simulator
    • Mtg: Arena

      Thanks for sharing this! I also play Steam with Proton and the only games I play are Minecraft, Stardrew, and the Sims 4 (modded). I want to switch distros but I don’t want to have to deal with the Nvidia thing again so if POP ships with drivers outta the box, I’ll be happy.

      I need to try some of those other games. I’m not big on any major AAA titles myself.
