    It’s fine, a lot of distros are Debian based including common recommendations like Ubuntu, Pop_OS!, and Mint. It’s slower to update than Arch, Fedora, or OpenSUSE though, so if you have brand new hardware you might be better off with one of those. Honestly, it doesn’t really matter which you choose, what makes it easier on all of them is if all your games are on Steam so that you can just turn on Proton for all games

      Also you don’t even need the game through steam, epic games works with lutris and you can add gog games into steam with the “add non steam game” option and turn on proton.

      I’d agree with Debian/common recommendations. I personally use Fedora and game on it with decent success, proton is great. I can play the majority of my Windows-only games without any faffing. Ever more games are being released with Linux natives now too which makes it even easier.
