New Manjaro Linux Gaming Handheld from OrangePi

This is exciting! A gaming handheld from a great open source hardware company that makes SBCs like the RP5. It looks to have all the quality features and combines the best of all the handhelds I’ve seen. This has me really excited.

I am wondering though what gaming on Manjaro Linux is like if anyone knows. I’ve heard of Bazzite and Nobara as well as Chimera and HoloISO which are all focused around gaming. Does Manjaro ship with all the gaming features preinstalled?

    I like Mint; it has that Ubuntu ease of use, without Ubuntu’s snap packages.

    If you want something geared specifically for gaming, Pop_OS is good. I’m not a fan of how it looks, but I think I’m the minority in that

      Pop_OS is known to cause issues with some games running under wine, for that reason I don’t recommend it.

      Garuda linux is a good alternative, but it’s got a very “cool” design philosophy that some people might not like.
