I am in the process of building my own PC. Nothing fancy, just something that is much more powerful than the old PC I currently have. I've been using Linux on my laptop for a few years now (KDE Neon), and I'm very happy with it, I would like to put Linux on my next PC, but I have my doubts...

I don't know if I should stay with the distro I already use or if there is one that better suits my needs.

On the one hand, I'm a graphic designer but I've been using only FOSS for many years, I only use Adobe in the office (reluctantly). On the other hand, I have seen that thanks to Steam with Proton gaming on linux is getting better and better. What I don't know is if SteamOS can be good not only for gaming.

I would like to know if there is a distro that works well both for gaming and designing using FOSS (like Krita, Inkscape, KDEnlive, etc) or if it's ok to stick with KDE Neon.

Manjaro is sort of speedrunning things. It is not a responsibly managed project. You CAN get shit done with manjaro the same way you can drive to work by just flooring the accelerator the entire way. It’s a bad idea but technically it can work.
