GIMP is shipped by default with Linux distros

This isn't true for most distros. Might be for some specific distro, but most distros I've used don't come with GIMP pre installed.

Nvidia and Wayland work when used in compatible desktop environments. GNOME and KDE Plasma are supported. Something like sway, for exapmle, doesn't support Nvidia.

Before switching to Linux I used to think: "Linux users really use the terminal to install apps?? So archaic". Now I can't be more grateful of being able to install everything from the terminal.

Using nvidia with Arch is super simple. Just select the nvidia proprietary drivers during installation (archinstall), and it's done. It is great for gaming, steam is available in the multilib repository (enable it during the installation with archinstall). It is pretty much ready to go after the installation. You might have heard that it is super hard to install, but that is if you install it manually (without archinstall). Haven't tried suse myself, so I can't talk about it, but I can definitely recommend Arch, not only for gaming but for daily driving as well. Having the AUR spared me the headaches I had back when I used mint and fedora, and programs weren't available in the distro repository.

If you have free time and you are willing to spend it in compiling all your programs

that's weird. I just opened discord and deleted my phone number without any issues, just had to type password and 2fa and done. I did it in the android app btw.

If you want microsoft word just use windows. There's no sense in a "Piracy-based" distro, what would it be? Having wine and qbittorrent pre installed?

Judging by the reasons Malte Jurgens listed on the issue, it looks like it would be a good decision.
