  • Having used many distros (gaming-oriented and otherwise) Nobara would be my recommendation as well.

    People saying “doesn’t matter” aren’t considering someone brand new to Linux would probably benefit from an out-of-the-box gaming ready distro (nvidia drivers ready, rgb drivers built in for gaming laptops, other gaming specific tweaks and fixes that they won’t know to install on say mint, a perfectly fine, general use distro). Not to say they wouldn’t be able to do all that on mint or Ubuntu or whatever with a bit of googling and effort, but they’re asking specifically for gaming.


  • I tried it for awhile. Speed was good, unfortunately for my use case had some show stoppers.

    Pros: -It worked good on Linux. -Custom pricing plans (you can pick exactly which nodes you need and only pay for those) available month-to-month, makes it easy to try

    Cons: -Android app couldn’t remain connected as I move from mesh WiFi pod to pod. It would think its connected still but I would have no internet connectivity until I manually reconnected the app. (Everytime I crossed my house I would have to manually reconnect). -No port forwarding (torrents)

    Ended up switching to airvpn. Use “openVPN for Android” which handles the mesh pods, and openvpn on Linux as well. Works perfectly.
