Wow, this is awful. Some people reported that these ads are also very petty and not necessarily related to the game, like apparently Elden Ring shows an ad for a licensed mousepad when you hover over the game now...

Edit: Playstation Product Manager says this is actually a new bug. I really doubt it but they do seem to be "fixing it".

What distro tho?

Anything but Ubuntu will be perfectly fine. There really isn't that much difference between the major distributions.

Anything including Ubuntu will be perfectly fine. Canonical's shenanigans that us Free Software people like to bitch about are entirely irrelevant to new Linux users.

No snaps are fucking tragic and should be avoided at all costs.

Look, if the choice is "use Ubuntu because it's easy and officially supported by Steam" or "give up and stuck with Windows (or even worse, a console) would you really suggest the latter?
