I switched to fedora some months ago and I’ve been really enjoying it. Maybe worth a shot.

I didn’t even know that was a thing, I just keep it in a git repo
When did he ever talk about those things? Did I miss something?
Pop os is great for gaming and it comes with nvidia drivers installed
I now have two gpus, but I’ve run single gpu passthrough for a long time without any issues. However, you have to keep in mind that some software (such as anticheat for games) will refuse to run in a virtual machine.
There is a shell option for this (at least in zsh): setopt autocd
. This allows you to change directories while omitting the cd in front
I already have a constant ip on the vpn I still don’t get it, sorry
IMHO arch is way too overrated. It does include a lot of stuff in the repos that others don’t have, but the benefit end there in my opinion. My experience on fedora has been way better.
How would I use that in this situation? I don’t get it. I already have a vpn set up to communicate between the two devices, and have been successfully running multiple services in this configuration for about a month. It’s just XMPP that I’m having trouble with.
The vps communicates with the rpi through a vpn.
I have not heard of duck dns nor lstio, but I’ll check it out when I get home.
There is some obscure/proprietary hardware that doesn’t play nicely with linux. Fingerprint readers may not work on laptops, for example. I’ve had trouble with a trackpad in the past.
Gentoo. I say this as someone who used to daily drive it.
And arch too.
I use a self-hosted vpn, because I don’t want to expose anything to the internet. The ones I do want to, I haven’t set up yet since it would require reinstalling my pi. But I do have a reverse proxy set up on a vps that I will use once I get around to doing it.
Nextcloud notes is really nice.
As long as you are okay with using the web versions of office, you can basically go with any distro, since all of them have at least a web browser and virtualbox in their repositories, as well as vs code. Jetbrains also works (I’ve only used intellij but I assume the others are just as easy to set up). I’ve never tried visual studio on linux though, not sure how well that works.
Most linux distros don’t need any tinkering to get up and running (sometimes drivers can be an issue), and you definitely don’t need to know any commands to get started. A good place to start is distrochooser.
There are GUIs (graphical user interfaces) for basically anything nowadays. However, I definitely recommend learning the commandline later down the line, since it can be really powerful in automating mundane tasks or unlocking power you didn’t even realize.
As for customization, a linux system is built in a modular way, so given enough experience, you will be able to replace any part of your system you don’t like. Be that the desktop environment, the kernel configuration or the init system (Don’t worry if you don’t know what those are yet).
Gaming is fine if you make sure everything you want to play is supported. Protondb is a nice database where you can look up how well your games run under linux. It’s mostly the anticheat in games that have issues, not the game itself.
EDIT: Don’t worry about what others think of the workflow that works for you. There will always be elitist assholes telling you to run arch when you encounter a problem. Just ignore them.

If you don’t mind self-hosting stuff, nextcloud with davx5 could be a great choice.
It’s possible to run stable diffusion on amd cards, it’s just a bit more tedious and a lot slower. I managed to get it working on my rx 6700 under arch linux just fine. Now that I’m on fedora, it doesn’t really want to work for some reason, but I’m sure that it can be fixed as well, I just didn’t spend enough time on it.
