I'm planning on switching to Linux on my main PC as I don't want to move to Windows 11 and was curious about other people's experiences doing so.

I have a Steam Deck and everything there works out of the box, but I imagine that's a more curated platform compared to standard distros.

What are your experiences, good or bad?

I've had pretty good experience with Bazzite recently. There were some initial pain points, the biggest one is that my Nvidia GPU wasn't even used in Steam games by default. But after working around all of those, it's been a smooth ride. I'm playing a dozen of lesser-known Windows-only games in Steam and Lutris/Wine with zero or very minor issues.
