With SteamOS Linux from Valve about to expand onto devices other than the Steam Deck, like the upcoming Lenovo Legion Go S, Valve just announced a SteamOS Compatibility rating system.
I would also like to recommend Zorin for new Linux users
Yeah, great idea, just recommend them the 2. worst OS ever
Zorins advertising, that it can run just like Windows, just sets the User up for failure. Also its Apps are a mix of bleeding edge and Debian 11. it dosent even give you security fixes right away because you have to buy their pro version
I know of some businesses that have actually ditched windows for Zorin, and I set my aging parents up with it and they’ve been pretty happy with it so far.
So it seems to do well enough as a windows alternative based on those personal observations. I haven’t heard about them witholding security patches though.
I don’t personally use it, and I’ve been pretty hands off with my parent’s installs of it after the initial setup, soi can’t really answer either of those questions based on my personal experience of it.
Bazzite is basically SteamOS for desktop. Linux is highly flexible in general though, it’s not that important which one you pick most of the time.
I would also like to recommend Zorin for new Linux users, it’s super easy to windows users to swap to and have a good experience.

Does Zorin develop their own tools/patches or what do they bundle as office and creative suite in their Pro version?
Here’s a list of some of the software bundled, although it doesn’t include everything as far as I know.
