I’m in the same boat. I’d like to leave Windows but since installing POP!_OS I’ve had issues with ending up with two versions of Firefox installed (yes snap and yes I’ve fixed that now). My Yubikey can’t be detected until I found a post by another user with a fix. I am still yet to find a way to get VRR working.
There’s no doubt that a lot of issues are user related but honestly I don’t have this much trouble with Windows.
This isn’t the first time I’ve tried Linux and each and every time I find issues that I normally just give up on and revert back to Windows. I am trying though, I even purchased a second SSD dedicated for Linux.
I gotta say though Valve’s proton software is amazing and without it I probably wouldn’t be trying so hard to leave Windows as my primary game doesn’t have native Linux support.
Mint and ubuntu are solid places to start linux. You can run them all pretty easy in a virtual machine btw, windows will even auto install ubuntu with the hyper v program. https://imgur.com/a/CFCSUvh Uncheck the secure boot for iso.

I’ll give EndeavourOS a try then. Thanks.
I tried Pop as it seemed highly recommended.
