I am not bad with computers and have a beginner+, maybe intermediate level knowledge of Linux and I kept running into some problems here and there with different distros. Most claimed to work out of the box (which may be the case for some users, but I have a shit ass Nvidia 1060 and that was not at all the case, until I installed Nobara KDE/Nvidia.

Just came here to potentially save someone time, this shit is actually working out of the box, closest experience to this was with Arch, but that’s definitely not out of the box.

    I agree with you. Every time I would encounter a distro that “works out of the box” only for it to crash and make me lose all the files in my hard drive.

    Until I installed manjaro KDE. I haven’t had any crashes so far, I’ve been using it for months!

    I know people say that Manjaro sucks and etc, but it’s the only one I’ve used that doesn’t crash, how am I gonna use something the community says is better if I don’t know if it will crash 2 months down the line?

      I’ve been using Linux for 15+ years and it never corrupted my data. Even if it completely breaks you can always (arch)chroot and recover everything.
