From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I hope most are migrating from windows, and not from other distros!
Im thinking of switching to Bazzite from Fedora. I was on Nobara, but team of developers vs solo project... Unfortunately, a couple of games don't run as smooth now.
That's what I did after many years on Fedora. Honestly both Bazzite and Fedora are good, I don't miss Fedora but if I ever had problems with Bazzite that's where I'd go back to.
I recently switched from nobara to bazzite, and 99% of games worked with no tinkering.
