It was the easiest experience I had installing and setting up different des/bootloaders to test out as a newcomer to linux. It has hella options. The wiki is also really nice and easy to use. And gaming wise, the useful part is all the packages it installs that i didn't know about and the documentation on the wiki related to it.

While everything just works, I did have to switch to lts kernel because of freezing, this freezing also occured on endeavour and mint tho.
