Rust in Linux Revisited
I think this is intended as more of a proof of concept than as a useful change, but apparently this driver is going to be enabled on Fedora rawhide soon.

Enabling secure boot for your Arch installation is very easy now with the "sbctl" tool
EDIT: Actually, I tested this just now by setting module.sig_enforce=1 in the kernel cmdline and it doesn't work. It turns out Fedora/Ubuntu/etc ship this custom patch in the kernel that explicitly allows using platform (secure boot) keys for verifying kernel modules: https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/commit/07db43366d560153fd1d418cfebe2370fb20697e. The patch is not in the upstream kernel yet, so Arch doesn't have it.

Is Linux worth for gaming? Which distro do you recommend?
kernel patched with futex2 kernel patched with fsync compatibility kernel patched with winesync kernel patched with cherry-picked zen patches kernel patched with OpenRGB kernel patched with AMD CPCC kernel patched to enable amdgpu for pre-polaris cards by default instead of radeon kernel patched with steam deck support kernel configured with ashmem, binder, and android support for Waydroid kernel patched with windows surface support kernel patched with simpledrm fix/workaround for nvidia (see: https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/1788 ) QSG_RENDER_LOOP=”basic” set for nvidia cards — fixes nouveau Wayland freezes. The nvidia proprietary driver sets this anyway after installation. This fixes the issue of KDE Wayland often times freezing on first login before nvidia proprietary drivers are installed. mesa-git provided for AMD/Intel drivers instead of latest release, built and updated regularly (every few weeks to a month on average)

This is why Valve is switching from Debian to Arch for Steam Deck's Linux OS
Do do indeed, but they also curate their own downstream patches for the kernel and system libs. Their kernel repo is here https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark. You have to specifically opt in to vanilla mainline builds of the kernel via https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Kernel_Vanilla_Repositories.
What are some alternatives?
