I just don't have time for that. I use Ubuntu (headless for work), I don't have the time to spend configuring yet another system.
I'm willing to try stuff like Bazzite since it - supposedly - comes all pre-configured. But I'm not going down yet another rabbit hole with a totally new OS just for gaming... I just don't have time for that. It's just much easier to install Windows 11.
1) get a working setup in minutes by following just https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Jovian_NixOS;
2) if something does not work, you don't start from scratch next time you have an urge to try again;
3) have best-in-class community support;
4) overcome lack of apps by plugging into nixpkgs - the biggest repo of packages out there among all the distros.
Hope I did well on selling NixOS to you.
