Making the switch - what are the gaps?

Bottles

For "normal" games you could look yourself using ProtonDB regarding every game released on Steam and AreWeAntiCheatYet for most multiplayer games. If a game isn't available on Steam you have three possibilities. First if it's available on GOG, Epic Games or Amazon Gaming, you could use the Heroic Games Launcher. Second you could try to run the launchers through Steam itself using once again Proton. Third you could try installing it with a script or tutorial in Lutris or Bottles.

Nobara Linux

All in all if you want a distro advice from me, it would be Nobara Project. It comes from the same person building ProtonGE and he is also a Red Hat engineer iirc. So he know what he's working with. It comes preconfigured for gaming and preinstalls some software you'd need for gaming.
