According to the flowchart there, cachyOS or bazzite, also some other tools and recommendations, good luck!

    Nobara and pikaOS also both good options. I use CachyOs on my main PC and nobara on my htpc and have had a very pleasant time with the distros and their communities. Just gotta leave windows at the door and be open to learning a new way of doing things. Best of luck OP

    and browser I love zen browser and have Vivaldi as my chromium browser of choice when some niche task needs it

    I went from Nobara to Bazzite, Nobara worked but felt super janky, Bazzite is on another planet in terms of polish.

    Bazzite is awesome I just don't like immutable distros personally. I like to tinker more than they allow. Nobara works great for my htpc but I think if I had to switch from CachyOs on my gaming PC I'd go pikaOS

    I keep reading this, but it's never clear what people mean. I still haven't found anything I'm not allowed to tinker with, it's just done differently.
