From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I want the ability to play all my steam, gog, origin and play natively, all this in a nice shiny cool looking desktop.

bonus if they add android app support

android support is native with waydroid (and with the help of some scripts for better app compatibility)

although of course by the name of it, you need a wayland session (but its possible to run under x with weston)
