i've reinstalled Linux far more times than Windows because of Pop_OS being a stupidly broken distro and my stubbornness to keep using it for good gaming support. ZorinOS has treated me better, but i still just don't know how to do the things i want to on it. i can barely figure out how to run an executable despite having grown up with Ubuntu since the beginning. I would have grown up using Linux my whole life if my school laptops weren't running Windows. Now i just cannot use Linux for more than a week without going back to Windows.
I'd recommend trying fedora/nobara(derivative of fedora focused on gaming) it's widely supported cuz it's one of the big 3 distris but with much newer packages than Debian but your not getting all the new software the moment it drops like Arch so it's more stable, they're very solid distris and automatically support snapshots(they allow you to rollback to previous file states for the entire system without taking up a tonn of memory if you somehow fuck your system). I, at least never had a problem gaming on them and found them to be ideal all-rounders in general
As for running executables you may need to modify permissions with the chroot command, additionally you may need to sudo to run it
