I've checked in on it for the last several months and only picked up like 3 games that sounded interesting. And those only because they were free/included in my prime subscription.

Valve is Augustus Caesar. A benevolent dictator that did much to improve the quality of life of his citizens, but still a dictator. They've centralized control over the PC gaming sphere and brought tons of legitimate improvements to the hobby. Now they have no legitimate competitors. Epic Games is a mosquito bite, Prime Gaming is nothing, GOG is the closest thing and even they're miles behind.
It only took a couple of generations to go from Augustus to Nero. I do not anticipate good things once Gaben retires/dies.
I expect nothing less from Satan's maggoty cum fart.
Man, this infographic is like, EXACTLY why people are scared of Linux, lol.
It has a lot of good info but it's just so overloaded. Can't decide what story it wants to tell so it tells like 7 of them.
(Beside the point, but Mussolini totally did not run an efficient train network, it was a cluster fuck like everything else he did)
Not that there's much reason to be charitable towards Musk, but if you're in the mood:
Even if you don't think so, they've essentially been grabbing handfuls of cables and yanking then out, no guarantees they even know HOW to restore everything how it was.
This is my experience playing with FreeBSD.
"These ports are cool, I can compile all the software from source so I know exactly what I'm getting!"
[This software has 100 dependencies]
"Well I'm not reading all that, I'll just click Yes for all"
So like, there ARE people who unironically argue that the city is still Constantinople and belongs to the Greeks.
They're just far more widely recognized as morons while transphobes are more socially accepted.
This is going to hurt me, and I did as hell didn't vote for him
This is more like Stalin's Great Purge

The thing with Debian distros (like Ubuntu, Mint, PopOS) is that they're extremely stable releases. This does not necessarily mean everything "just works", but rather that they will not experience major code changes that could disrupt a working system. This means that if some apps don't work out of the box, that state is going to be pretty much the same in any distro based on the same Debian version.
A more "agile" distro might be less stable, but as a result could see some updates to apps that Debian is still lagging behind on. Fedora is probably the "next step" in this direction: it's still reliable but gets updates more frequently than Debian (it's sort of a "proving ground" for code before it gets pulled into Red Hat, which is a distro focused on long-term stability).
As for desktop environments: I've always thought GNOME was the most Mac-like DE, but KDE has enough configuration options that you can kind of turn it into anything you want. Since this is on a very old laptop, you might consider LXDE, which isn't the prettiest DE, but it's super lightweight and might let you squeeze out a bit more performance if you're wasting a lot of compute power just rendering the desktop.
