Is PopOs a good option if i don't want to tinker much with the OS and do some basic tasks as web browsing etc?

Yes. I switched to PopOS a few months ago from Arch seeking a "just works" OS for gaming. It's been great for me.

In addition to all the responses here, one thing you could also do when you have a question about a distro is to just fire up a VM using for example VirtualBox and try the distro to see for yourself. Or even better, make a live USB and boot from it.

I like pop_os a lot, it’s a high quality distro they’ve assembled. Even on fedora I’ll use the pop shell extension, good QOL upgrade for gnome. So, yes. Great for browsing.

@hungry_potato Tromjaro definetely.

PopOS is generally fine, though I’d lean more towards Mint in terms of usability and low hassle

That’s been my experience with it. Browse the web, do gaming via Steam and Lutris. Been pretty solid out of the box for me.
