minus-squaretrivial_wannabe@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up19arrow-down2·11 months agoHonestly, just go with Debian Stable (bookworm) with KDE or Linux Mint. It is pretty stable and a windows like experience. I have not tried VR on it tho, so can’t speak to that.
minus-squareAlex@feddit.rolinkfedilinkarrow-up7·11 months ago+1 for mint. It was my first distro and it made me love Linux.
minus-squarec10l@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6arrow-down1·11 months agoI second Debian. Stable is excellent. Testing has newer packages and is generally almost as stable. I published my Debian gaming setup a few days ago. Haven’t tried VR on it either as I don’t have a headset, but I assume it works. https://lemmy.world/post/9543661
minus-squareZamundaaa@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down2·edit-211 months agoSorry, but Debian stable is a terrible recommendation! They don’t even ship bugfix releases of KDE Plasma… It’s stuck with a months old version that has lots of known and long fixed bugs in it
minus-squaretrivial_wannabe@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·11 months agoFair point, but for someone who doesn’t like tinkering and is afraid to make the jump to Linux, I still stand by the suggestion. Different people value different things and that’s okay.
