I wonder if the Arch bros will ever realize they're doing more harm than good...
Obviously NixOS is the way to go for a gaming OS, just use the right flake and you're all set!

Nah, use Gentoo, you'll be hard-pressed to find something simpler.
How about https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/

I started using Linux when I was in high school. LFS has been my end goal, my Linux graal ever since. It's only been 23 years, I'll take care of it someday soon©.
I’m planning on making Linux from super scratch where I start with the kernel and write every other component myself. ETA: 9000000 years
Why include Linux bloat? Just write the kernel yourself!
I tried but it turns out writing device drivers it very very boring
Even simpler! Nothing to get between you and the kernel. :)
Honestly Arch-based is a good choice, but straight up Arch for a newbie? Nah.
I’m running EndeavorOS with KDE and it’s been solid for gaming. A few bugs, but mostly minor, like it picked the wrong default NIC driver (but still worked) and SMB shares wouldn’t auto mount recently until an update a week or two ago.
My main PC for non-gaming runs Manjaro. I know there are haters about it, but it’s been a solid distro for general use, and I’ve encountered no issues to speak of.
