From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I did some testing in Nobara and it seems like there are various things that just seem to work correctly out of the box. Most of which would not run properly on Linux Mint no matter what I tried when I was using in for ~3-4 weeks.
Some specifics:
Mostly issues with Bottles, default proton on Steam (proton-GE did seem to fix these), Goverlay, etc.I have decided to keep my current win10 install and just do a single Linux distro.
Here's an updated potential setup for Win10/Nobara dual boot.
NVMe SSD:
SATA SSD:
Question: Does anyone have any recommendations about how large the Nobara Linux partition (/ & /home) should be?
Since I do not plan to put every type of user data on it and will put all my games on the Data & Games partition (which will the largest amount of SSD space), I imagine that I could get away with a smaller than average / & /home partition here. Of course, I do want to be careful with this since running out of space on / & /home would be a massive headache.
