Im on a Dell G5 15 laptop with a 1660ti. I set my built in monitor to 125%, and that looks fine, but for some reason my second monitor seems to be zoomed in a bunch, even though that is still at 100% I kinda need my laptop screen zoomed in since its so small, any advice? Pop!_OS LTS, dont remember version, but says “most recent”

    So, I don’t reccomend jumping to an immutable distro if you are a beginner. Nobara is a gaming distro more in line with what I wouod reccomend

      Read my reply from above. I personally would definitely recommend an image based distro.
      They only seem complicated for advanced Linux users because they’re different, but for noobs, they’re similar to Android. Getting your system managed automatically and not having to care about anything is great!
      Also, for Nvidia users, there’s always the chance of the install breaking, and then they have to troubleshoot.
      On Fedora Atomic for example, your now bricked OS is just one image rollback (takes 10 seconds btw) away from working again like nothing happened.

      They also provide a great ootb experience, especially the uBlue images, where small tweaks were applied and Nvidia drivers are already baked in.

      Another recommendation might be Vanilla OS. It will soon receive a huge update and be completely different. But that will take a few months until released.

      Nobara? No way! It’s very insecure.

      • It’s a one man project. If the dev quits, we’re all removeded
      • It disables many security features, like SELinux
      • It receives updates very late, including security patches
      • It’s experimental and might be unreliable

      If you want a “proper” gaming distro, check out Bazzite.
      It’s very similar to Nobara, but managed automatically due to the uBlue base, and way more secure and reliable.
