"Try to avoid using Snapd and Flatpak where possible. They are considered unsupported."

This is from the Garuda Linux's website (the dr460nized edition)

garudalinux.org/installation?e

So, I can't use Flatpaks?
I wonder why. 🤔

Moreover, so many apps don't even have a separate version for Arch (which Garuda is based on)

Many don't have AppImages also.

What am I missing here?

I'm glad #GarudaLinux / #ArchLinux is setup with automatic snapshots... first a kernel update made my machine not boot, then this last update broke my wifi. Keep having to restore from a snapshot for about a week, update again, then it's good for a while.

Such is the trade-off for being on the bleeding edge I guess.

Just made the decision to move away from Garuda Linux!

1: Removing a Philosophical Thorn In My Side
Garuda runs beautifully and looks fantastic but the team behind it are, generally speaking, not what I'd call "beginner friendly". I'm seeking friendlier shores. Hopefully, that's CachyOS.
2: Magpie-ing Towards Greater Performance
CachyOS is getting a lot of praise and attention right now for its specially-optimised Kernel and software which delivers (anecdotally) the fastest Arch experience available, and Arch is already quick compared to some other flavours of Linux. I'm never not one to turn down a free performance upgrade! Exciting!
3: Finally Banishing the Beast
I'm a fibber, for convenience. I tell people I've moved to Linux and ditched Windows. The first is true: the second is only half true; Windows still exists on my drive. I've not logged into it in over a year (cross my heart), and the Grub bootloader in this dual-boot system defaults to Linux, but it's still there taking up valuable space on my drive - a full Terabyte - that could be used more profitably. It's time to reclaim that space and become full Linux for keeps.
4: Backups, Backups, Backups
In order to help me do all this I've bought a new backup hard drive that covers my current SSD capacity. I already have a backup drive but it's only 500Gb (like my last SSD was) and is currently serving as a home for some other data anyway. Having a backup of your full system is something everyone should be doing, especially if you're as fiddle-friendly as I am. The threat of accidentally breaking something and losing everything is real. Snapper system snapshots are fantastic but still that extra layer of comfortable security would be appreciated.

Not often you get to hit four birds with one stone...😁 Updates as they happen! ​:celeste_hearts_arch:​

tl:dr; which Linux distro should I recommend for a gamer?

Someone asked me about gaming on Linus. They are currently using Proton on MX but want to move away from MX. I know nothing about gaming..

My Mind went to Sparky Game Over edition but it seems to have been discontinued - Is Garuda the way to go? Using a downstream Arch distro seems like such a paradox but maybe I am missing something.. Also I don't want to recommend anything Ubuntu/Red Hat based..

Hello #linux desktop #GarudaLinux and byebye #windows11.
I realize this may be really old stuff for linux desktop users but i never used #FishShell before and i got instantly hooked by its abbreviation feature, besides it's also nice to see the branch im currently in.

I'm using it for only a few days now but it already does everything i use on a daily basis, i did not expect it to run this smoothly.

I only got experience with debian/ubuntu and rhel/fedora until now so arch has a lot of new stuff but well, i got time to learn.
