alt Hacker NewsI can recommend CachyOS as a linux distribution for gaming that has worked for me across multiple computers without any fiddling. It's the one that's led to me ditching windows entirely after a few failed attempts over the years.
Although, everyone probably says that about whatever distro they happen to use lol.

I think I’d avoid the Cosmic version of POP!OS for a while for gaming. I mean it works but you do have to get fiddling again unlike the previous not cosmic version.
Most egregious problem is that steam games start in a strange window rather than full screen and you have to press a weird key combo to fix it.
Nvidia based Acer nitro FWIW your mileage may vary
I was only able to install the latest CachyOS image by modifying the boot arguments in grub of the live installer, after reading the lengthy log file it pooped out after the first install fail.
I have no idea why people recommend this to people who aren't actually deep into tech and linux already.
