Luke is the big brain here for going with Linux Mint, which is a time-tested good ol' Ubuntu, thus Debian, derivative that Todd Howard would sell you thirteen times a year because it just works.

but if you don't know how to fix these under-the-hood things, it can be a very bad experience. In terms of being able to efficiently use your machine, I'll say Gnome is pretty good (it gets the job done). It may be the default for many distros, but that doesn't mean they've implemented it correctly. I think they dodged a bullet not using Gnome.

Randomly locking up due to its dependence on communicating with dbus (having your whole DE lock up until the gnome-settings-daemon times out is annoying, also annoying is the fact that my journalctl gets stuffed with 'gsd-binary timed out' even on a fresh install), sometimes it randomly breaks every GTK GUI because of a 'tracker-miner' process that goes commando (requiring you to run a tracker reset), as well as the whole desktop restarting every time you save a file because your /home/user/.config/user-dirs.dirs broke during an update (this will play tricks with other desktop environments, but Gnome handled it the worst that I've seen).

I think there's a reason that Anthony isn't doing the challenge, it just wouldn't be the same type of video. To me, it seems like the point of the challenge is basically just to see what it's like to actually switch your main gaming PC over to Linux as a new user. But the vibe that I get from the WAN Show segments so far is very different from that.

There are a lot of complaints here that seem to start off assuming that the point of the Linux challenge is exclusively to show how easy/amazing gaming on desktop Linux is. If the end result turns out to be that it's hard for people who aren't already deep in the know with desktop Linux to pick the right distro, that seems a pretty valid outcome for this challenge. The idea was to see how two really techy Windows guys could handle switching to Linux and still being able to game. I'm interested in seeing how the actual video goes, but I think the whole point of the challenge was that they might make a mistake in picking the wrong distro or something like that.
