Linux distribution for gaming and media centre.
Linux distribution for gaming and media centre.
Heya! I’m looking to install Linux for the first time on parts from my old pc builds to use as a media centre and multiplayer gaming system in my living room. Something with as clean as possible interface with room for customization would be cool. Oh and support for my old nvidia gpu.
I’m also looking for general tips and advice for beginners if anyone has some to share.

HoloISO is SteamOS for non Steam Decks. That would be great option for something that "just works" and is designed for use from the couch with a controller. I haven't tried this but I'm sure there's a way to install Kodi for media too.
Don't know why I see so many people recommending HoloISO. It hasn't been updated in 3 months, and all they did was merge a bunch of code from Chimera.
ChimeraOS and Bazzite are what you're looking for.
Thanks for educating me, what's the difference between the three?
I don't really know, other than the other 2 are updated on a nearly daily basis and Chimera is Arch-based (like SteamOS) with Gnome UI while Bazzite is Fedora-based.
