Any reasonably modern, well maintained desktop distro should be fine; whether they're "for gaming" or not shouldn't matter. I've successfully run WoW on both Debian Stable and Arch.

I've had similar thoughts, too, but as I get older, being extremely fat just isn't something I can continue doing. Having back pain and requiring a nap every day after work just ruined my quality of life too much, and I'm only in my early 30s.

Do you morons think that cyclists are just that suicidal or something?

and its not linux or mac

Except there's already a Mac version of GOG Galaxy.

I like what GOG do, but gating features, even niche ones, behind a subscription sounds like the first step towards enshittification.

Also, I'm sure as hell not giving them extra money until they fix their platform on Linux/Steam Deck.

Okay... I hate taxes too, but how else do you propose we pay for things like roads?

Poes Law very much applies, but I'm pretty sure Conservapedia is a troll. Just look at their list of "Greatest Conservative Songs".

Either "I hate poor people but I love weed" or "I'm lying because my actual views would scare people off".

Never. I exclusively use my left thumb for the space bar, too.

I could probably type faster if I fixed those issues, but 30 years of bad habits die hard.

One really handy thing with the Steam Deck is the ability to remap all of the buttons (as well as the two paddles on the back for each hand), so one could probably make a decent one-handed control setup for 99% of turn-based games. Even ones that require the use of the mouse, given the Deck's touchpads.

Vampire Survivors requires nothing except the stick/dpad outside of menus (and I'm pretty sure you can use the touchscreen for menus, too).

If your friend(s) are stuck using the dpad, it might not be suitable, but Crypt of the Necrodancer only requires four buttons or left, right, up, and down (and you can assign buttons for the button combos normally required to do things like use bombs). This assumes that they like rhythm games.

As somebody who doesn't like needles, I resent the implication.

Antivaxers are antivaxers because they're stupid. Whether or not they hate needles is irrelevant.
