Did Linux OSs move into torrents later? I’m surprised one of those isn’t an older active torrent. I mean sure there’s no point in actually installing those OSs now but people would still seed.
It’s been a while for me using a gui for Linux (headless Debian is my go-to)
Does that mean Kubuntu? (KDE Ubuntu)
And for VRR (GSYNC/FREESYNC) would Kubuntu also support that do you know?
When I’ve tried to Google before, it seems like no distro really supports these as well as windows ATM (although the steam OS comment may show things are changing)
VRR (Gsync module at least) works on Ubuntu 23.04 for sure. It’s a bit limited though, but it is improving. I was able to get it working by only having one monitor plugged in and running the game in full screen (not windowed). The arch wiki has a very nice write up of the current state. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Variable_refresh_rate

Ther’s really no point in seeding a 20 year old iso of an os that evolves that quickly
20 years ago we were on the 2.4 kernel just shortly before switching to 2.6, wifi was a mess, GPUs were even more mess
now om gaming on my linux machine with better FPS than the windows version
Any Linux distro do HDR / VRR yet?
Iirc SteamOS JUST added it. So clones of it should be seeing it soon
I’ve just googled steamos, that’s Debian 8 right (which is eol, weird…)
So I’m guessing Debian 8 (and hopefully newer) will get support too soon?
I think thats the old steamos. The current one is arch and isn’t quite public release yet but there are a few clones of it.
Kde 6 should have basic hdr…and I can’t find it, but I swore I’ve seen in the past week some gnome based os had some support…

I’ve been using FreeSync for years on Manjaro and Arch.
Most advice I’ve seen says you shouldn’t look for distros on torrent sites, and official torrents tend to disappear after each new release.
Distros with torrents tend to publish their own torrent file or magnet link on their site
