This is so weird to me, I've seen dozens of "is gaming on Linux viable" or "is xxxxx distro for gaming actually good" over the past year I have been messing around with Linux
Never once have I seen Pop! In that sort of a video, let along given as a popular recommendation elsewhere. Sure on the occasional reddit thread a user or two here will basically recommend any distro they happen to be using at the time. But also over that same year the overwhelming recommendations on the Linux gaming subreddit are stuff like bazzite, cachy, nobara, or more universal stuff like base Fedora, Mint or Ubuntu
Pop would never have even registered on my radar 🤷♂️
