I've tried Linux. I'm old now, and it's not what I know. I need plug and play.

Linux is as plug and play as it gets now, if you choose the right distro. It's easier than Windows at the very least. Again, SteamOS is just a Linux distro.

If you want something, Garuda Dragonized comes with everything you need already installed and a GUI tool to quickly add anything extra you may want. It's as easy as it can be.

Also, I want to try to word this as politely as possible, but there are a lot of older people who continue learning new things. It's actually good for your brain health to do so. Refusing to learn something new isn't because of your age. It's a choice. You're free to make whatever choices you want though.

How does Garuda handle HDR and multiple monitors with varying refresh rates?

That and stuttering has been some of my gripes.

Multiple monitors with different refresh rates works great. No issues. No idea about HDR though.
