Is it worth switching from Debian 13 to Nobara (GNOME) as a basic/new Linux user?
Hi! I'm fairly new to Linux and currently on Debian 13. My use case is mostly creative work — design and multimedia apps like Krita, Inkscape, Kdenlive, Blender and OBS — plus some gaming with Steam and a couple of other launchers.
My issue with Debian is that some apps aren't available as Flatpaks, so I've had to do manual installs, which means dealing with outdated dependencies, adding extra repos, etc. It works, but it feels like too much friction for someone who chose Debian precisely because they wanted something stable and easy to maintain.
I've been looking at Nobara GNOME specifically — I'm already familiar with the desktop and it's the one I've learned to customize. It also seems like a good middle ground for having more up-to-date packages without too much complexity. Is it a reasonable move for someone at my level, or am I overcomplicating things?
Thanks!
