I had a friend tell me, a linux veteran, that I should "try linux mint, it's a great experience out of the box", meanwhile I'm running Nobara + arch linux in a dual boot configuration, and have debian running on a headless server.

The older you get, the less you want the headache, but man, I'm not old yet, I still like tinkering here and there. I hate when things break, but with experience you learn how to tinker safely, and still can have fun without staring at black screens due to some driver misconfiguration.

    Went Mint > Nobara > Mint. I totally understand your take. It was fun tinkering a bit on mint, but I wanted more by going to Nobara.

    I had to reinstall it 3 times. There have been some breakage due to KDE updates and Nvidia drivers, and when you go back from a long day at work and you just want to do some chill gaming, coming back to a non functional setup is a pain, even more when you just wanted to update and it wasn't your tinkering.

    So yeah, not for me. I do still think both have their own place in the world
