I really want to put Linux on my gaming PC, but I'm doubtful I can get my Rift S working on there. :/

Apparently there is an openxr driver for it, though, so I suppose I should at least give it a shot.

There's absolutely no way I'm going to win11, though.

Nobara or Pop! OS would be good choices.

Yeah, VR is still catching up, but I feel like (dual) booting to Win 10 just for specific purposes would greatly reduce the risk.

I'd just be scared of windows trying to clobber my nix partition.

Personally, I've never had trouble even with partitions, but Windows isn't going to mess with drives that aren't NTFS.
