IMHO arch is way too overrated. It does include a lot of stuff in the repos that others don't have, but the benefit end there in my opinion. My experience on fedora has been way better.

Gentoo. I say this as someone who used to daily drive it.
And arch too.
As long as you are okay with using the web versions of office, you can basically go with any distro, since all of them have at least a web browser and virtualbox in their repositories, as well as vs code. Jetbrains also works (I've only used intellij but I assume the others are just as easy to set up). I've never tried visual studio on linux though, not sure how well that works.
If you don't mind self-hosting stuff, nextcloud with davx5 could be a great choice.
Pop os is great for gaming and it comes with nvidia drivers installed
