For newcomers I would recommend something Luke Linux Mint. Iets stable and very userfriendly.

Great keep going!

Steam as soms sales so…

I understand your point and there are many reasons why people pirate stuff.

If possible I would spend it on a game or software if you like.

May I suggest games that can be played offline like indie titles if your into them.

Not an indie but still great: Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition it’s 20 euros and when at a discount drops till 3 euros.

I play on Linux myself work great and if your not into those online games with anti-cheats you can consider buying a steam deck.

And unfortunately most people dont realize or care because they ‘have nothing to hide’. Having something to hide or not, I want my privacy!
