    Sad that you don’t read replies, because what you are saying makes a ton of sense, and I have questions.

    I don’t really have the time to try out 20 distros. I used Kubuntu quite a lot before, but I had issues with it, so I wanted to switch away. I tried out Mint, PopOS and Fedora, due to common recommendations and Fedora is the only one that really caught my fancy.

    But “tried out” means “installed it, ran one game on steam, done”. Don’t really have time for more. Since then I have regretted choosing Fedora.

    What would be a good distro if I want to game, but I also need it as a general purpose distro? I don’t want to have to dual-boot between a gaming distro and my regular distro where I code and run all my regular stuff on.

    I’d also like to have something that doesn’t update the kernel all that fast, since my laptop doesn’t wake from sleep on a kernel newer than 6.10 (at least on Fedora 41). It’s a documented bug that doesn’t have a fix yet, apparently.
