I'm using ChimeraOS after using Bazzite and running into crashes a lot. It's been about 2 months but no issues so far. I still search the web for stuff fairly often just because there's so much you can do, like set up Emudeck, modding games (I've been playing FF7 after setting up Seventh Heaven and it's been pretty fun), and I've also added a YouTube TV shortcut that runs in Firefox with uBlock for no ads. At this point I don't have any complaints about it and it really does feel like a console-like experience.

I've been on pop!_os for 4ish years now, and in that time I had like.. 3 issues with it, which is way less than I had with windows lol
Honestly if you're picking one bazzite, mint, pop! and any of the others that are considered beginner friendly will probably be equally fine ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
