    I just bought a gaming tower. Should I go Mint, Pop OS, or something else? I’ve used linux a lot at work, but never really had to set a lot of the basic stuff (drivers, etc) up by myself.

      Mint would still be my initial choice, unless you’re really intending to dive right into playing the latest AAA games in which case Bazzite might be a better starting point.

      But it’s really easy to install both. You might even prefer to have both. You can install Mint on a disk partition with only 50-100GB or less. Most Linux installations will work fine with about the same. It’s only once you start installing games that it’s going to consume tons of disk space.
