From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Can't help with saved game data, but Bazzite is a solid choice, not just because it's a gaming based distro. It's one of the immutable distros, so all the important stuff that keeps it running, you can't mess with (easily). And all your personal stuff that doesn't keep the computer running, it doesn't touch. So your computer is always up to date ( faster than steamOS, and if something goes wrong, just reboot into the previous) and you can't screw it up without trying.
