From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I really like openSUSE Tumbleweed, it basically feels like a polished rolling release.

But what exactly are you trying to do? If you're using Steam, it just works. You can even add non-Steam games to Steam and use Proton with it. If you can't figure it out, post the issues you run into and surely someone will lend some tips.
