I spent all of yesterday building a PC (NOT easy, Jesus Christ) and now it needs an OS. Fuck windows, or course, so I want a Linux OS. I’ll be mainly using my PC for gaming and editing videos, and I’d much prefer something that works similarly to Windows just for comfort purposes since I’m already familiar. Also I’ve heard Linux is incompatible with some games?

So, nerds, what do you recommend?

    Either the KDE or GNOME edition will work, depends on your personal preference.

    Also I’ve heard Linux is incompatible with some games?

    The only games that don’t run on Linux are games you shouldn’t be playing anyway :p like online shooter slop or league of legends.

    editing videos

    The main video editors are Kdenlive, blender, shotcut and Davinci Resolve (proprietary but the most mature).

    If you aren’t doing anything too wild (like making a feature length movie with complex VFX etc) you can use kdenlive, if you already used davinci on windows then you can use it on Linux as well.
