Yes and yes. Pick anything that is large and actively under development (Mint, Fedora, Arch, etc.) or anything actively in development based on valve's stuff (Bazzite, Nobara, SteamOS** but that is currently focused on handheld devices so desktop support technically comes second place. I'm going to let the official steamOS simmer for another 6 months or so before trying it on a custom build desktop.)

Valve and AMD have freed Linux gaming by injecting cash into the FOSS ecosystem and giving it enough power to build momentum. Nvidia's monopoly on AI, academic researchers getting budgets for it, and Microsoft's and Apple's refusal to make software that meets scientific quality, have all coalesced freeing us from proprietary drivers never getting ported to Linux.

The year of the Linux desktop is now, and is so hype inducing that Microsoft used their trillions of dollars and world class research facilities to calculate the exact date for us: October 14.
