I use KDE Neon on my laptop and I'd prefer to have KDE as a DE on this one too (if possible) but I don't mind a non Ubuntu base. Basically I'd just like to be able to play games on it without much hassle but I know how to paste commands into the terminal if the need arises.

Thanks for the warning. I am currently running Fedora (because "it just works") and I'm drowning in bugs and incompatibilities.

I was considering Bazzite because of all the recommendations, but considering my luck (and probably my hardware combination) I'd probably end up just like you described.

Could try Nobara, too.

its Fedora based, as well.. and I am a blithering idiot and had almost no issues with it.
