Watched a video about Debian and now I am not sure is the best for me. (lemmy.world)

I have just watched this video and in it 2 things are said that made my Linux newbie heart sink:

  • Debian 13 is not going to get the latest versions of Nvidia drivers and there are better distros for us.
  • Debian in general is not meant to run on the latest hardware.

I am on a regularly upgraded desktop tower gaming PC and currently I have an Nvidia card and an Intel CPU (which, I know, even just because of the mobo chipset is not a great choice).

In this conditions and wanting to invest even more in gaming and new hardware in the future, what should I run on, instead of LMDE 6?

Pika... pika pi!

Pika.. PikaOS?

Pika pi, pi ka, pi chyuu, pika ¡pi! pika chyuu.

Pika pika pi chyu chyu pika pi?

Translation:

Hey! If you like Debian, but want something a bit more cutting edge...

Have you heard of PikaOS?

Roughly, PikaOS is to Debian as Nobara is to Fedora.

Also, I am hungry, can you spare an onigiri?
