I’d recommend KDE over GNOME, especially if you’re coming over from Windows. My take on Linus’s move is he’s tinkered with Linux 5+ days a week for ages, so GNOME makes more sense. But as a nerd who doesn’t work in tech, I love KDE as I can tinker until I’m content and changes are just made in settings. Either way, I’d say finding the Desktop Enviornment you like is more important than the distro!
I prefer Fedora over Bazzite as it gives you more control, but this also means it’s easier to break. Bazzite is an immutable distro, whereas Fedora uses the traditional mutable root filesystem. But despite the difference, Bazzite uses Fedora Atomic as it’s base OS.
Just as a fun little factoid, Linus Torvalds runs Fedora and while he was using KDE for a while, he switched to GNOME as he felt it required much less fiddling around with than KDE.
Thanks for the reply, it made me dig a bit deeper into this treatment (Casgevy) methodology and I learned some radical things about it! But the term gene editing in molecular/microbiology always refers to DNA, so these changes will be present in all future cells. Knowing the treatment used gene editing, I incorrectly assumed they just cut out the genetic sequence causing sickle cell. However, they edited the patients stem cells and reinfused them to create a permanent population of red blood cells with both the original sickle cell and fetal red blood cell traits! This works since fetal red blood cells don’t sickle due to their cell structure, meaning the sickle cell mutation remains in the patient’s DNA, so the edited cells still produce the trait to help with malaria.
As cool as this truly is, what’s also wild is now this person doesn’t have the drastically higher chances of surviving Malaria! Sickle Cell requires both parents passing on a recessive gene that helps with Malaria. When one parent passes on the gene it doesn’t lead to sickle cell yet it provides the benefits against malaria 🤯

Ben Affleck and Matt Damon were extras in Field of Dreams. But the most notorious actor which comes to mind is Clint Eastwood, he had a few uncredited parts plus a few extra roles in the 1950s!
