I had a brief expedition into game development recently and ended up using Unreal Engine, I eventually gave up on Unreal – but I do plan on checking out Godot. Although, I eventually go home sick for Linux (my computer isn’t powerful enough to run a Windows VM with a game engine; please spare me), and ended up wanting a “it just works™” setup. So, logically, I try Fedora. Although, the installer just wouldn’t boot, not on a USB, not on Ventoy, nothing. Just a cold dark screen with a solid underline cursor. I also tried OpenSUSE at one point, but there’s some bad blood between me and that distro so I think I gave up at the installer. Anyway, I ended up installing Arch Linux, and would you look at that, the installer launches!
TL;DR: Arch Linux might take more time to get setup to your liking, but once you get it there, it it just works™.
PS: I have very much non-free hardware, this could be part of it – and it made installing Artix Linux with hardware encryption very difficult that one time. :/
Edit: PPS: I’m not trying to say “don’t use Fedora or OpenSUSE,” use what you want. This is my experience.
