The software maker will use the Recommended section of the Start menu, which usually shows file recommendations, to suggest apps from the Microsoft Store.

Linux Mint is a good distro to try out!

Personally I would suggest Fedora with KDE.

It seems to me more robust with hardware support, it's indirectly backed by a major company, it gets updates often to stay compatible for gaming, and one click gets you proprietary drivers/software support.

This. Then if you want to expand your horizons, OpenSUSE.

Yeah starting with Mint and then go further if you want to makes sense.
