From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If you have Nvidia, pop os has all that built in. My go-to is usually popos, or mint
I have an Nvidia GPU and have had a few issues with crashes on Mint even after manually installing the latest drivers. Is PopOS noticeably more stable? Have you by chance played Helldivers on it?
Also it seems like it's pretty tightly coupled with Gnome and tweaks, is it still adventageous if you use, say, KDE?
I didn't play helldiver's, but other games were stable on pop os.
What do you think about Ubuntu over Mint?
Mint is Ubuntu without snaps.
