if you're going for a gaming distro, do yourself a favor and go with bazzite!
it's kind of the unofficial SteamOS for desktop and has a general philosophy of "it just works", comes preloaded with basically all relevant gaming communities!
prism is in the app store, bazaar, and literally just a click to install ;)
so bazzite 'full' or whatever doesn't work on my old af laptop, so I went with xubuntu. seems to be working fine. that was easy
the problem now is getting my designated server PC running the server, and I seem to be having difficulties getting that going on Debian, as none of the guides I've seen so far actually explain what is happening or are for a different setup. mostly it's just a lack of knowledge thing on my part, but I have a few hours to give it tomorrow to try and sort it out
good luck!
