Looking for Linux Distro Suggestions and Solutions to Streaming Issues

I dabbled with Linux Mint for a few weeks and eventually went back to Windows 11. Now, I'm eager to give Linux another shot and have a couple of questions before I choose a new distro. I primarily game using Steam, and I also use Discord to stream my gameplay. I've heard that Roblox has an app for Linux that runs its mobile version, and Hytale has a native Linux launcher, but my main concern is with Steam. I'm not too worried about compatibility or anti-cheat systems since I also play on my PS5 Pro.

While I was using Mint, I faced some significant issues, especially with streaming on Discord; it was laggy and frustrating. I used the default Discord app, but it didn't perform well. I'd like to know if the native Discord app has improved or if there's a better alternative now.

Another problem I encountered was with applications minimizing to the taskbar, which occasionally got stuck or crashed, forcing me to restart them. Additionally, I really miss the tile snapping feature in Windows 11 for productivity purposes. Is that feature available now?

I have a decent understanding of computers but only limited experience with Linux. I'm willing to troubleshoot problems and would love to hear your suggestions for a suitable distro and if my issues have been resolved in recent builds.
