I replayed BO2 earlier this year because it takes place in 2025. I was shocked at how close its world is to ours.

If you had told me in like 2013 that, between the Black Ops series and the Modern Warfare series, Black Ops would have the more realistic plot points, I would have called you crazy.

7z on Linux is all good though?

This may not be a cure-all, but it’s pretty comprehensive.

I’ve heard great things about Bazzite, so I’m sure you’ll be fine there.

I just wanted something new, and Fedora was too similar to Ubuntu under the hood. I don’t know if I’m going to look back from Arch-based. Maybe when I break my install lol.

Primarily, they’re both gaming-focused.

I found out about Pop!_OS when doing research for gaming on Linux. It’s maintained by a private company, and they invest a lot of time into keeping their drivers up-to-date. AFAIK it’s still one of the best choices if you have Nvidia cards, because they have a separate ISO just for Nvidia machines.

For a short time, I used Kubuntu because I love KDE Plasma. I had been wanting to use the Plasma again, and I kinda wanted to try a non-Debian/Ubuntu-based distro. That’s when I stumbled upon CachyOS, and I don’t think I’m switching to another distro for a while.

CachyOS is Arch-based, with a super-easy install. They have their own version of the kernel, optimized for gaming. It really is fast, too. Not only does it beat Windows in most speed tests, but it beats pretty much every other distro as well. If you like Arch, I highly recommend CachyOS to keep some of the basic stuff optimized while you tinker with your system.

I had heard it was ready for gaming, and I wanted to see for myself. It wasn’t, at the time, but I used it for a few months before I switched back to Windows for a bit. Then, after another year on Windows, I gave Pop!_OS a chance. That sent me on a full spiral into distro hopping, and I’m on CachyOS now - not switching from Linux again.
