What about Linux Mint? Xfce or Cinnamon?

 

I'm waiting for Zorin OS 18 because 17.2 doesn't support my hardware/hardware information because it's Ubuntu 22.04 based.

Go with rolling release distro if you need latest fixes/drivers/features for your hardware or games imo.

XFCE & Cinnamon is just a desktop environment, just like KDE/Gnome/i3/Sway/Hyprland/Deepin. 
You can have Manjaro with XFCE/Cinnamon or Fedora with XFCE or EndeavourOS with XFCE.

All the mainline distros branded "Ubuntu" are basically the same guts with different desktop environments and default software bundles on top.

 

That said, I recommend Ubuntu MATE because I'm stuck in my ways and I think GNOME 2 is the peak Linux desktop environment.

I sold my soul for ProSupport.

As an immigrant from Windows, I'd recommend Linux Mint for looking somewhat like Windows.

 

Heard people say LM isn't the best distro for gaming, but I'm running my Steam games (and Genshin Impact, not a Steam game) just fine on LM.
