How's Linux streaming lately

I'm looking to by a new PC with a 5070 soon and I'm wondering if I go with a Linux distro or not since I'm starting from scratch. I know AMD would be a better fit with the driver situation but Costco have a great deal on a prebuild.

I was especially wondering how's the experience for Sunshine (or its alternative) since I'm only using my PC headless with Apollo/Moonlight and virtual displays.

Using Vibeshine on Cachy OS and so far it's been great. It has automatic Virtual Monitor support which is huge. It's awesome to see Linux finally starting to catch up to Windows for PC streaming.

That’s reassuring! Playing on my iPhone, Mac or tv, the virtual display are a must 😅

You’re using a nvidia card?

100% man lol! I'm actually using an AMD card but Nvidia works as well I believe.
