    So, what’s the best widely-used Linux distribution to try out for desktop use including dev and gaming? (But not exclusively gaming.)

        Rather than an answer, here's some advice. Don't go it alone. F/OSS' greatest asset is community. If you have Linux using friends/acquaintances, they'll happily lend a hand. This'll lead to more positive experiences when you bump against things that don't match your expectations.

        As a dev, I love using @openSUSE Tumbleweed. Rolling release, always tested and with btrfs and snapper, I can always roll back if needed. The community is great and refreshingly pragmatic.

        I'd also recommend Ubuntu at the moment. I'm exploring other distros, but Ubuntu is an easy-to-use and has the widest support.

        I would suggest @KdeNeon. Basically Ubuntu with the latest KDE packages: https://neon.kde.org/

        These days it's more about how software is deployed within linux rather than the distros themselves, I would suggest you look at the excellent work on Gnome and flatpak dev tools from @hergertme, i'm sure he would happily explain the linux dev eco.

        Tim, I suppose if we were all honest it's a bit like how long is a piece of string? if there is one thing problematic about Linux, it's choice :)pic.twitter.com/fy0Spg6P4t

        Scanning @DistroWatch is always a good policy, plenty of variety and opinions. At least about 307 live distributions at the moment. They tend to fall into families, @debian/Ubuntu derived, @RedHatNews/@CentOS, @archlinux based, @gentoo or independents.pic.twitter.com/ZXXZtFdNc9

        First, Nvidia or AMD? Nvidia: fixed release distro that doesn't get the latest kernels. The Nvidia driver often doesn't like new kernels AMD: rolling release distro or fixed release distro with a repo for new versions of Mesa. Mesa and the AMDGPU driver are improving all the time

        For development, openSUSE is a great distro. There are tons of great tools for managing your openSUSE installation and you can use the Open Build Service to automatically build and distribute software for all distros. 2 Flavors: Leap (fixed release) and Tumbleweed (rolling)
