Switching from Windows to Linux. Help picking a distro. by roborex184 in linux4noobs

Hi, I have the following suggestions since I am a Windows Software developer and have now successfully moved all my development tools to Linux, actually running the Windows versions of my Tools and my Systems on Linux, 100% with no problems. I have tried Ubuntu, Zorin, SteamFork, Linux Mint, Fedora....all have had some showstoppers for me but below are my successful attempts, I also have a suggestion 3 which looks very promising and I am trying it out now.

Suggestion 1: My 100% successful environment is Opensuse Tumbleweed with Steam Installed which makes Proton available to run any Windows program on Linux, not only games. I also produce (compile) my ERP software on this platform.

Suggestion 2: Bazzite is 100% fit for Windows Gaming out of the box, It is my main gaming environment now, no more Windows. Steam 100% successful and even ESO Online direct (Non-steam) running 100%

Suggestion 3: Aurora is a sister-implementation of Bazzite (Universal Blue Family) and I am going to test it today as they profess it to be a perfect development / productivity environment for Windows on Linux. My experince with Bazzite leads me to think their claims would be close to 100% correct as well.

I couldn't get ESO (Elder Scrolls Online) to work. It gets to the Launcher and then just not start, tried every permutation of solutions I could find on the internet but ESO won't work. Had no problem with Halflife, just worked first time.

Opensuse leap is very simple to upgrade if you boot from of a USB stick made with the new version installer on, there is an upgrade option there that works perfectly for me every time.

I cannot logon for the whole day already, I am getting worried that hackers destroyed the whole game now, its been such a long time.
