But now is not a bad time to experiment a bit, maybe try kubuntu, it’s got good support for gaming, while keeping the base Ubuntu safety, plus KDE is incredible compared to gnome.
The best part of kubuntu, if it doesn’t work out you can apt install Ubuntu-desktop and you’re right back to safety.
All the gaming stuff is well tested and the drivers work too.
Only downside: snap, but you can generally get around it, and it’s not as bad anymore.
So, I kind of would say no?
Don’t get me wrong, mint can handle anything.
