@Default_Defect @Magnolia_ The best Distro for beginners is the one, a friend or family member can give support.

I’m pretty sure I’m the only person in my circle who even knows what Linux is.

You are on the path to be that family member or friend for someone else. Welcome.

@Default_Defect Then you have all the freedom to choose one of the top 5-10 Distros from https://distrowatch.com/
I highly recommend #ventoy for easy testing: https://ventoy.net/en/index.html
