Try a Debian based distro. So Debian, mint, Ubuntu, kubuntu.
Ubuntu comes with gnome, looks and feels Mac os ish
Kubuntu comes with KDE and looks like windows.
Mint is kinda like kubuntu
Debian comes with what ever DE you’ll install.
Debian (based) distros are usually the most stable ones with good (Driver) support all around.
I’ve had to come across a device which had any issue after an install with those distros.
All of them will game, if that’s something you worry about.
So if I’ve got a fairly new Intel CPU, an ASUS ProArt motherboard with an onboard wifi chip, 1 x 10 gigabit ethernet port and 1 x 2.5 gigabit ethernet port, a 3090Ti, a scarlett 2i2 gen3 for audio input/output, an 8BitDo and an old Xbox 360 USB wired controller, 1 expansion card I used to expand the front IO of my desktop tower, and older esoteric software I refuse to update b/c of their switch to subscription - like for example - Propellerhead Reason 10 and an old M-Audio 49e USB MIDI keyboard I refuse to replace, I should be ok?
These are all the things I’m stupidly afraid to lose with a switch to Linux.

You could also try Fedora with KDE or Gnome.
