But I've spent most of the time tweaking and setting up and downloading stuff rather than actually playing. Games seem to work really well. Not doing benchmarking but I really like how stable the framerate is when frame cap is in place. So far everything I've tried was absolutely buttery smooth.

I'm heavily eyeing the switch to arch for gaming on my main rig. Testing it on a laptop rn but I got lost in rice land before even installing steam

Debian is now amazing with gaming, with amd at least. I made the switch from arch, and have no issues with any game. Would recommend Debian with xfce all day long.

Recent Windows user who moved to Arch here. I was debating between Debian and Arch when I first migrated. What makes gaming easier on Debian? Less packages to install to get going?
