It's fine, a lot of distros are Debian based including common recommendations like Ubuntu, Pop_OS!, and Mint. It's slower to update than Arch, Fedora, or OpenSUSE though, so if you have brand new hardware you might be better off with one of those. Honestly, it doesn't really matter which you choose, what makes it easier on all of them is if all your games are on Steam so that you can just turn on Proton for all games
ty for the rundown, comrade 
Also you don't even need the game through steam, epic games works with lutris and you can add gog games into steam with the "add non steam game" option and turn on proton.
I'd agree with Debian/common recommendations. I personally use Fedora and game on it with decent success, proton is great. I can play the majority of my Windows-only games without any faffing. Ever more games are being released with Linux natives now too which makes it even easier.
uh well it looks like the titty pill box so i think its good
I just stumbled across this, so sorry for such a late response. It's not super ideal. Debian stable runs older versions of software that can sometimes get in the way of a game being able to run. For example, I was incapable of playing Starfield for the longest time due to a crash on startup. Turns out that the issue was caused by some a package that was extremely out of date due to it being on the stable line. Once I moved it over to testing and did a full update of my system, I was able to run the game without issue. That being said, even with just out of the box Debian stable, almost everything works without a hitch. I don't recommend it as your first distro. I would highly recommend using Linux Mint.
ty for the late response, comrade 
The Dreamcast also uses a spiral for its logo 
Anyone who knows anything about what keeps the it infrastructure running knew this already
