I used to distro hop frequently before Linux was almost supported by many things. I preferred Fedora derivatives but Ubuntu pushed those out in the dev space. I switched to Arch because it was funny then a few years ago switched to EndeavorOS because it was easy. I currently can’t get things like OBS to work smoothly (when my display sleeps, screen captures have to be deleted and rebuilt), sharing my screen with basically any tool is a nightmare, and I’m just kinda tired of compiling fixes and deeply configuring. I’m spoiled by the work experience on a Mac where all of this stuff works and it’s POSIX compliant.

What I’d like out of the box

  • Solid support of OBS or other streaming tools
  • Easy screensharing
  • Decent audio experience
  • Packages not Snaps (if I have to cave on this one I have to cave)

Linux is Linux so the rest of what I do will work almost anywhere. Godot, Rust, and a browser are basically all I need.

    Sounds like it might be more of a DE problem than a distro problem. I’d recommend trying KDE Plasma if you haven’t already.
