Why is this so hard?

So I wanted to get away from windows and use Bazzite because I've heard its the best distro for gaming. I have had the hardest time literally just trying to install it. I used rufus and installed the KDE version for my PC using the RTX (nvidia) version.

Problem 1: Upon installing I get (i forgot the exact error) but it basically said failed and the panel was dead with a big black screen. After googling I found that I should first get an older distro of fedora (40 bluesomething) and then upgrade from there.

Problem 2: Fedora 40 installs and I create my user account. I get stuck in a login loop where when I put in my password the screen goes black for a second and then I'm presented with the login screen. After a few more hours of Google I learn how to
su -
and delete my user and create a new one with
-aG wheel
and then I'm able to log in.

Problem 3: After letting some things update and reboot I then went to the Bazzite website and followed the instructions on updating the existing Fedora Atomic Desktop but now I'm presented with a new error of which I can't find an answer to (screenshot provided).
