I Tried Gaming on a HARDCORE Linux Distro and Here's What Happened!

Описание: In this episode of my Linux distro challenge, I try Void Linux to see how easy it is for someone with some technical knowledge to install, update, and run a game on Steam with a controller.

I go step by step through the Void Linux install, setting up users, partitions, the bootloader, KDE desktop, and services. Then I attempt to install Steam through both the native repo and Flatpak, run into missing audio, and troubleshoot GPU drivers and libraries.

Was it harder than Arch? Could I actually get a game running? Watch to find out how Void Linux stacks up for gaming, and let me know in the comments if you use Void yourself. Any tips are welcome.

If you find this helpful, drop a comment or even just an emoji for engagement. Thanks for watching.
