Best game engine to start with as a beginner to gamedev and linux?

I switched to catchyos not too long ago but i also want to get into gamedev im just not sure which engine to go with? I looked in scratch but i find it annoying (visual scripting). Im not sure if i should try godot or some other engine now. Im also not sure where to post at sense itch has become questionable, i also want to try game jams aswell.
