    Does Mint still use the Ubuntu packages?

    As @addie@feddit.uk mentioned they are way out of date for gaming on AMD, especially if you purchase a new GPU at some point.

    I switched from Ubuntu to Fedora when I got my 6900 XT because it would have taken another 2-3 months for Ubuntu to catch up to a kernel version where I could use it.

      For most packages yes. You can also use Debian Edition, but if you want new packages that’s even worse
