Been a Linux user at work for decades, windows at home for gaming. This week I am 100% a Linux user full-time.

I wish I could get steam to run on my Linux OS, it'll only play like 3 of the games I want, and none of the VR ones

Have you looked into proton support. Not sure what games you play, but it plays the majority of my library

That a distro? I'll look into it

Proton is like wine, it allows you to run games on any distro

Proton is a compatibility layer that basically tricks an application into thinking it's running in Windows, allowing to run in Linux.
