I'm currently gaming on Windows, but I've been trying out Ubuntu through Steam. I'm running into issues where cutscene videos don't play properly, leading to a strange "rainbow of colors" effect, similar to a "PLEASE STANDBY" screen. I'm unsure if I need to optimize Ubuntu for gaming or if Ubuntu itself just isn't the best choice. With all the different Linux distributions available, is there a specific one that's considered the best for gaming? Or should I just be making adjustments to my current Ubuntu setup?

You can find more distro options at this link: https://which-linux.vercel.app/. It's a handy resource. I'm glad to help!
Honestly, any mainstream Linux distro is likely fine for gaming. If you're comfortable with maintenance, CachyOS is a solid choice too!
Consider trying out Bazzite or Nobara. They're specifically designed for gaming, and Bazzite is quite reliable. CachyOS is another option, but it's a rolling release, so it requires a bit more management from you. But honestly, any standard distro can work; just make sure to keep it updated!
