I agree that everyone should stop using windows 10 this year.
Nobara for gamers, Mint for everyone else. Done and done.

Any quirks that nobara might have for someone looking to switch from windows to linux on a gaming pc (tower, not laptop)?
Some (possibly) relevant system specs:
-
Intel i5 9600k
-
RTX 2060
-
Two monitors (adaptive/G sync on my main).
I've heard that multiple monitors and/or adaptive sync has some issues on some distros which is my main reason for asking.
And a more tangential thought:
I've also heard that Windows installs tend to fuck with linux installs. Is this the case when they're on different drives? I kinda wanna just try different distros on a spare sata ssd, but my windows install is on my NVME which has a heat sync plate screwed over it, and I don't wanna go through the hassle of pulling it out if it won't make a difference.
I’ve installed Linux mint and have been happier than ever.
I am helping by installing Linux Mint, I'm sure this is what they wanted! :) I like it much more than 10 :)
Man am I the only ubuntu user? It's the only variant I never hear about.
There are pairs of us!
I run PopOS, based on Ubuntu
Well too bad, I can't stop using Windows 10 because I don't run Windows 10. Are they stupid???
And I fully agree with them.
Install Linux today, install Linux tomorrow!
Waaaayyyyy ahead of ya micro$quash.
Come on proton, 70 titles, just 70 more titles. My vr library just looks so empty in linux :(
