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.

Unpopular opinion but ubuntu.

You will eventually run into an error you have never seen before and and someone using ubuntu has already solved it and posted it online somewhere.

Which is why you just use Mint Instead and get rid of all the ads and telemetry while using the same solutions.

Counter point, Ubuntu specifically has so many old posts and answers that aren't necessary in modern systems, deprecated, or straight up no longer correct. Also a lot of recommendations that can screw up a system in strange ways. I feel like many issues (ie. Bluetooth, USB, Wifi) are due to people stumbling on old posts with configs and tools that have changed and blindly applying them
