Slant community chat on DiscoursePro A package for almost everything
If you need to install something, chances are someone in the Arch community has already made a package for it. This makes it incredibly easy for you to install and maintain all of the non-media content on your computer.
Con Manual install process
Installing archlinux must be done manually from the command line.
Con Not for the faint of heart
Arch only holds your hand a little bit of the way. While documentation is great, you are expected to know what you're doing. The result is that when you find the solution for a problem on a forum or elsewhere, the response may be completely over your head. If you're not well-versed in Linu...
Pro Made for gaming
SteamOS is built by Valve specifically to run on machines for gaming on Linux.
Con No support for wine applications
You can't run wine from SteamOS.
Con A fair amount of the documentation is outdated or incomplete
Not a huge deal though, due to the similarity with Arch.
Con Security issues
Since packages are not updated as fast as in Arch, critical security updates may not come as fast as needed for packages that may have issues.
Pro Lots of support
As the most popular Linux distribution, there's a wide range of sources for support online if you ever need help, including the Ubuntu Wiki, Ubuntu Forums and the Ask Ubuntu Stack Exchange site. This can come in hand particularly with gaming as the large userbase, tutorials and forums will all...
Genre-Co-Op-Controller Support-
The most popular Linux distribution, Ubuntu offers different OS versions for various devices like desktops, servers, tablets and phones. The desktop version, a fork of Debian, is very stable, particularly due to the number of active users, and provides a lot of features out of the box, so you can start working without having to install hundreds of drivers, tools and software first. For a lot of people, Ubuntu is the most competitive free OS to Windows and Mac.
Pro Always up to date Kernel
Fedora is known to be up to date, using the latest kernel in a matter of weeks after being released. It has a good balance among stability and bleeding edge. More up to date kernel = better compatibility with drivers for gaming.
Pro Integration with GNOME
It perhaps has the best integration with GNOME (GNOME software works out of the box).
Pro Stable
Fedora is a very stable Linux-based OS, as the developers place a lot of value in quality engineering.
Pro Easy installation
The installation procedure for this distribution is quite simple. It's GUI based and all you have to do is follow the instructions given by the installation window itself.
Con The default desktop environment is not very customizable
Maybe due to the fact that it's a relatively new project, Budgie desktop environment of Solus OS is not very customizable. You can only change the theme and wallpaper. Hopefully this issue will be resolved in the future.
Pro Great package management
The software center makes really easy to install the latest software, including third party software.
