Nobara is probaly a good choice, never used to be but looks good.

Only issue about linux gaming is anti-cheats, like if your friend wants to play valorant, r6, fortnite, or any new call of duty game, hes kinda screwed. You also have games like apex which work now because EAC supports proton, but ever since EA made their own anti cheat, its only a matter of time.

bug

star wars rogue sqaudron and star wars episode 1 racer. played the first rogue squadron and racer on the n64, would love to play those games with better graphics

i just wanted vertical tabs for more vertical space, and it looks better imo.
