MATE (customized with a gaming-oriented layout)
Drauger OS builds on Ubuntu's LTS base for long-term stability, then layers gaming-specific tuning on top: a low-latency kernel configuration, pre-installed gaming platforms (Steam, Lutris) and Wine/Proton tooling, and a MATE desktop customized into a more game-launcher-like layout by default. It targets a narrower, more independent niche than Bazzite or Nobara -- a smaller team, an Ubuntu LTS rather than Fedora or Arch base -- appealing to users who specifically want gaming-tuned Ubuntu stability rather than a rolling-release or immutable-image approach.
MirrorNest doesn't mirror distro ISOs — installation media should always come straight from the project's own official download page (linked above), so you get the correct checksum/signature to verify against.
