Yes probably not about the distro itself as it merely depends on what software and drivers you are running.
But what is working well for me currently for 99% of the 80+ games I’ve bought on Steam Games is:
Manjaro KDE running on AMD CPU with Nvidia card using Nvidia driver.
Steam Games with the Proton GE drivers.
Recognising my Logitech G29 racing wheel, pedals, and gear shift.
I just notice that if changing the Proton driver version, it can be worth deleting the compatdata folder created by the previous version, if you have problems. And it works best with games installed in the Steam folders on EXT4 drive. Installing to a NTFS shared drive is sometimes problematic for some games.
In my experience Proton GE is a bit hit or miss. I would always first try the non-GE versions and only if you have problems with those then GE might help. In addition Proton GE and VR seems to not like each other at all.
The problem I have had with Proton GE, is that some updates (two for me so far) had broken my racing wheel support. Took quite a bit of messing around before I tried reverting to a previous version, and then all worked again. So yes, for Proton GE I stay on an existing version, and only move to a newer version if I have some new game, and it does not run on the Proton GE version I’m using.
