I’ve learned to stay away from Debian distros. For me, the best for gaming is Fedora. It does not come with everything pre-installed (Steam, Lutris, etc.) so you have to install those things yourself. However, what it has is stability and ease of use. They distribute their own media writer to easily and reliably create installation media. I have had zero problems with Wayland, which made me skeptical about using Fedora. I’ve been eyeing Garuda, which I’ve heard positive things about, but haven’t bothered trying it yet. If you like xfce as I do, Fedora works great with it, and you can even install it with xfce as your preferred desktop.
