Loving PopOS but apparently I can't get the latest Nvidia driver? (Your regularly scheduled "What Distro should I use" thread) - eviltoast

Basically the title. Loving PopOS as my daily, but I understand that PopOS uses their own process and makes sure that only a checked driver gets wide release. Great for stability, less great for playing games that just came out. Is there a distro that this community generally recommends for gaming?

    So just to put this out there. https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite/

    Universal Blue has some really good ideas. I really think immutable and atomic updating linux distros are the future. Most applications have flatpaks available.

    Bazzite has alot of gamer forward features, has Nvidia specific builds, and even supports a SteamDeck replacement version of their OCI images.

    Even though people may not like Fedora, I think universal Blue solves a lot of the Fedora style problems people experience.

    There are also BlendOS and VanillaOS but I haven’t tried them with NVIDIA GPUs.
