      The different Garuda varients sans the gaming version are different desktop environments. Garuda just happens to support a lot. The gaming version of dragonized (which is KDE) is just dragonized with preinstalled gaming apps, probably the ones featured on their garuda gamer app

        Correct, plus RetroArch and cores on another tab.

        edit: also auto installs and sets up some backend services, like Firewall etc.

        edit2: correction, does not automatically install RetroArch, but easy enough to install it with the Garuda Gamer options.

      Pre-installs and configures most of what you need for gaming, so you can just remove the parts you don’t want, which is generally easier than a base install and having to add to it.

      edit: and it’s trivial to install a different DE and/or de-dr460nize the interface.
