What Distros do you want to shoutout and why you think they are doing well/are the best at what they do?

I am curious what is out there and have only had some experience with Linux Mint, SteamOS, and Pop!_OS

      I use immutable distros for the stability, and the nixOS approach isn’t for me.

      You can install whatever you like using a tool called distrobox, which allows you to run containers easily.

      I have an arch Linux container, and I have access to the entire AUR if I so please. I use that container to run Steam, and performance was the same as on Bazzite using the natively installed Steam.

        But because the apps are running in containers, the performance will take a hit. And also the customization.

        I do this too, being able to use Arch’s packages while having Kinoite’s stability is a really, really nice combo.
