I’ve heard real good things about the plug and play ability of Bazzite.
Though I say that as a guy that’s been debating the switch for a while, my main holdout being that I like to play weird indie games and spend a lot of time away from my computer, so would rather not have to spend my limited free time troubleshooting
I feel like maybe I’m missing something because I tried Bazzite for a bit (before switching to vanilla Fedora) and found it kind of overwhelming? Like there was so much stuff installed by default and it wasn’t super clear to me how it all was supposed to work together to do basic things like package management (esp. since dnf doesn’t work)
I think that’s what makes it good for beginners: it’s a lot like a mobile OS. There’s an “app store” where you get your programs (bazaar/flathub) and OS updates just happen automatically. Once you find yourself wanting to tinker then hopefully you’re confident enough to start installing “normal” distros.

Sounds like Bazzite would be a good fit.
