There has never been a better time to switch to Mint, Pop_OS, or Bazzite.

I will be looking into these, thanks for sharing! Any top recommendations from the three??

I cannot recommend Bazzite. It's an atomic distribution, which is pioneer tech that tries to make some things better but in effect makes a lot of things more difficult. FWIW, I've been using Linux for 20+ years.

Just go with regular Fedora KDE Desktop. https://fedoraproject.org/kde/

I see that Fedora uses Btrfs, so it should be able to take file system snapshots, which are sort of an alternative to the immutable thing, isn't it?

Yes, but not really. It can be convenient. Just remember it takes more space so provision accordingly for /.
