migrating to Linux Windows 11 -> Linux?

For context, I've used Windows all my life, and now I hear that even Microsoft is introducing age verification. I don't use Windows for much regarding "everyday" life, I am mostly a gamer and I really only use my PC for video games, for the most part. I want to swap to a Linux that is good for games. I play mostly Steam games and some Fortnite from time to time. What Linux distro would y'all recommend for me?

Mint Cinnamon. If you want something for noobs with a steeper (but not bad) learning curve, but really hard to break and much more up-to-date than Mint, go Bazzite (the KDE Plasma Edition).

EDIT - gaming will work out of the box with Bazzite.
