The best Linux distributions for gaming in 2026

My counter-point is Nobara: the freshness of Fedora, nvidia drivers preinstalled (so the largest Fedora roadbump removed), and you cannot find another distro which contributes to Linux gaming more than what Glorious Eggroll does with Proton-GE and umu.
Unless you're Valve, of course.

Quoting: ExplosiveDiarrhea¨gaming optimized distros" are the dumbest thing ever, hobby projects that do not contribute anything upstream and do not teach their users anything.Fair point.
But they are always fast and efficient when they have to setup their patreon...

So a browser requiring tons of RAM to run AI locally, but unable to do so because RAM prices skyrocketed to run AI remotely.

EVE Online, since 18 years straight now.
Pax Dei, from some of the guys who developed EVE.
The Lords of the Rings - Return to Moria, and we're digging deeply and greedily (what can go wrong?).
Elite: Dangerous, basically since 1984...
HumanitZ, but we stopped the EA playthrough, as we wait for release.

Hi Mr. Sujano.
You said my name like you don't know what character it comes from (*).
I thought you were into videogames... :wink:

(*) - actual ingame name and name in manual are slightly different, I know.

If there's a textbook example of how one can hate and love a videogame company at the same time, then it's Epic Games.
Today is even-numbered, so we love them.
Tomorrow Sweeney will speak, and we will hate them.
Sigh

KDE Plasma going all-in on Wayland and will drop the X11 session completely

Examples:
- Discord streaming your game screen to the other people in your voice call;
- Teams sharing your screen or a window it doesn't "own" while in a videocall;
- OBS capturing stuff from other program's GUIs and casting in Twitch or other streaming service.
I'm sure there are not the only edge cases. And I'm equally sure there are workarounds. But this is the behavior out of the box for me (Nobara 43, Plasma 6.5.2 on Wayland, ofc).
I understand program isolation and sandboxing. But if the walls of the sandbox are too tall, then one program cannot grab what another is showing, and redirect the stream appropriately.
And this is what I mean for lack of feature parity with X11. X11 can do all of the above by letting one software somehow peek at the private graphic structures of another.

Quoting: MayeulCScreensharing / screencasting still don't work natively in Wayland, while it works on X11.Quoting: syylkviewport/video memory sharingNow I don't understand this. We already have dma-buf.
