I am switching to Linux for the first time.

I heard Mint is really good but am not sure exactly which distro is best to use with Steam, as well as with newer games, as I primarily use my computer for gaming.

I generally play games like Final Fantasy XIV, Baldur's Gate 3, Elden Ring, Elder Scrolls Online, and Total War: Warhammer 3.

I find it so odd that they're only testing on Ubuntu when Steam Deck runs on Arch.

The Steam runtime is designed so it doesn’t matter. They just haven’t changed their packaging or anything since the early days.
