As someone who was in your exact position several years ago, nice!
I’d recommend Linux Mint to newcomers though. It’s based on Ubuntu and is even easier to get comfortable with (much better GUI for updates and app “store”), but it strips out all the Microsoft-like stuff that Canonical have been doing in recent years.
Pop!_OS (also based on Ubuntu) and Bazzite are also meant to be beginner friendly, and are particularly geared towards gaming on Linux, especially the latter.
I started with mint, but the more I see about Bazzite the more I wish I had started there. It just seems slightly more aligned to my needs.
Great thing about Linux is you can change your distro whenever you want.
If you’re uncertain, or not ready to go through the process just yet, you can always just boot Bazzite off a USB drive and play around with it for now.
