What is the best distro for gaming?

I know gaming has gotten a lot better on Linux and I'm working on a new PC and I'm wondering which distro to try.

Nobara is based on Fedora and maintained by GloriousEggroll. It has a lot of kernel-level tweaks and pre-installed software that aims to make it easier to start gaming right out of the gate

This is my recommended gaming distro, its actually works from my experience unlike the 3 different arch based distros I tried.

I'm not a fan of the cult-like community. I'd rather not my distro hang on to the good will of one single person.
It's probably the best option for gaming though if you're not willing to dip into the AUR.

What's cult like about nobara? I use it on a few devices because it has the kernel patches for Microsoft surface devices already patched in.

I would like to know this as well, I've heard it a few times on lemmy but never any explanation about it

Also I don't use nobara yet but I plan to when my Q2 framework 16" arives
