• Nobara for my gaming rig, same as OP + lots of out of the box gaming fixes.

• Tumbleweed for the laptop, rolling release while (in my experience) being a bit less likely to break than arch.

• Ubuntu/Debian/MicroOS/Alma for servers depending on whether I want stability + some fresher software, mountain-like stability, automatically updating container hosts or if I need redhat compatibility.

• Mint if its someone elses old computer they want to “just work”, since I dislike being tech support more than necessary.

Good point

For mobile games there is Shattered Pixel Dungeon, great time sink

For new users this isn’t really a problem though, but I agree with the sentiment
