GNOME tries to set a high standard of polishedness, look-and-feel, and simplicity of design. This is not wrong and makes GNOME good looking and easy to use for a less savvy user. But this has some drawbacks.
For a more savvy user that knows what he wants to do, the simplistic interface gets in the way and wastes time. In contrast KDE Will hold your hand less, and get less in your way. Though, when you drop these requirements GNOME becomes very pleasant to use, especially on laptops, which is why I use it on my laptop.
Another drawback is that GNOME developers will not ship something that doesn't fig their standards of usability. This adds to the polishing, but it means you will miss out on features, for reasons like "the options in the settings would be confusing for the users" until they are satisfied. E.G.: fractional scaling and vrr. On the other hand, KDE Will ship things that are less polished, but at least you have it.
Also some applications will work suboptimally on GNOME with Wayland, because of client side decorations.

Hi, I'm hijacking this thread to answer your other questions. Xpadneo is the correct answer, it will work with any desktop environment (xorg or Wayland) and all reasonable distros. It's also the driver used by the steam deck, so go with that. But I suggest you read the troubleshooting section for two things: fixing input latency (if you experience it) and secure boot (more on that later).
I use both KDE and GNOME (on different computers, for different reasons), but in general I suggest you use KDE.
Now I will explain secure boot:
You can use third party drivers with secure boot on any distro that supports secure boot. Here's how it works. Secure boot means that the bios checks that the kernel and requires that the kernel checks that all kernel drivers are signed with a key that it recognizes.
Now, either using a second bootloader (like redhat's shim) signed by Microsoft, or either directly getting Microsoft's signature, you get secure boot support on distros like Fedora or Ubuntu. So your kernel and all your included drivers are signed by Fedora with a key they got from Microsoft.
Other drivers (like Nvidia's and this) aren't signed, so secure boot will not accept those. But, secure but supports MOKs (machine owner keys), which are keys for signing drivers that you manage yourself and you installed on your bios, and secure boot will accept drivers signed with those.
Now, external drivers can be installed using two systems: akmod (used mostly by Fedora and redhat derivatives) and dkms (used by anyone else). These two are not in conflict and will work on the same system at the same time, it's just preference. The Nvidia drivers you installed used akmod, xpadneo uses dkms.
Both these systems support setting up a key for signing, you should then register that key on your bios. When you installed your Nvidia drivers a little interface made by Fedora for those drivers helped you to set up your key for akmods, and now you can use any akmod driver with secure boot. You could always do it manually and you can do it on any distro, Fedora just adds the graphical interface.
To use xpadneo you need to do basically the same thing but for dkms, and you need to do it manually, it's very easy, the troubleshooting section should direct you here for instructions, you will recognize some of the steps of registering the key.
If you feel a little adventurous, you can find which key akmod uses, and set dkms to use the same, so you don't need to register another one.
Also, I strongly discourage this, but you can technically remove Microsoft's key and sign everything with your own key if you really hate Microsoft. Please please please don't do it, you will screw up and break your system badly, and it's also a lot of work. Places like datacenters and such do this. Because they want total control on what goes on those machines. Also they don't sign stuff on the machine themselves, but they sign on a more secure one and then deploy the signed stuff.

The USB protocol was simple by design, so it could be implemented in small dumb devices like pen drives. More specifically, it used two couples of cables, one couple was for power and the other for data (four wires in total). Having a single half-duplex data line means you need some way of arbitrating who can send data at any time. The easiest way to do it is having a single machine that decides who gets to send data (master), and the easiest way to decide the master is to not do it and have the computer always do the master. This means you couldn't connect two computers together because they would both try to be the master.
I used the past tense because you may have noticed that micro USB have 5 pins and not 4, that's because phones are computers and they use the 5th pin to decide how to behave. If it's grounded they act as a slave (the male micro to male A cable grounds it). If it has a resistor (the otg cable has it) it act as master. And if the devices are connected with a wire on that pin (on some special micro to micro) they negotiate the connection.
When they made usb 3.0 and they realized that not having the 5th wire on the usb-A was stupid, so they put it (along side some extra data lines) that's why they have an odd number of wires. So with usb 3 you can connect computers together, but you need a special cable that uses the negotiation wire. Also I don't know what software you need for it to work.
Usb-c is basically two USB 3.0 in the same cable, so you can probably connect computers with that. But often the port on the devices only uses one, so it might not be faster. Originally they put the pins for two connections so you could flip the connector, but later they realized they could use them to get double speed.
