Q1: Pretty good! Use ProtonDB to check what games work, and if you need to apply any fixes.
Q2: Linux Mint is the most popular choice for beginners, and it's extremely easy to use. Other people choose Pop!_OS because it's apparently better for gaming (I haven't tried it). However, I think the best distro for gaming, while still being extremely stable, is Nobara (a distro based on Fedora Linux).
Also, practically all Linux distros are customizable, don't worry about which one's the best.
P.S: You can browse through the most popular distros here: DistroWatch
(Background: I've been obsessively using Linux for four years.)
You could utilize the server/client functionality over the local network instead of using the same process.
So you could point the other users to the machine's local address and they would automatically find the Pipewire server. Maybe? I guess? It's just a theory.

This thread seems to have what you're looking for.

According to the thread, its possible to provide system-wide usage by enabling this option at build time:
-Dsystemd-system-service=enabled
Or it seems like you could share it over the local network by editing the Pipewire config file and making an environment variable. (See post #5.)
Or you could
Just add the "player" user to the "audio" group
according to post #8.
Note: it seems like Pipewire runs on port 4713. So the server would run on 0.0.0.0:4713, I guess.
Emacs, of course!!!
I can not imagine trying to get stuff done without it.
It makes organizing, programming, writing, just everything so much easier.
