I'm about to go help someone move from Windows to Linux, and this person is not particularly tech savvy. And it just occurred to me that I can't really think of good distros to demo that showcase GNOME or KDE. The main "newbie friendly" distributions I have now are Linux Mint, and Pop! OS... But when it comes to the "big 2" desktops, I can't think of any that I feel great about:

• Fedora (my own desktop OS) and its atomic versions: Great OS, but having to use RPM Fusion for hardware video acceleration disqualifies it because that's always a pain point during upgrades.
• Ubuntu: I'll use this to showcase GNOME, but I'm not particularly happy with the current direction of the project, especially with their latest focus on AI. And considering that the person I'm helping wants to get away from copilot and AI, I doubt she will enjoy that either.
• Debian: Haven't used this on a desktop in forever, and never considered this very newbie friendly.
• SUSE: never made me super comfy, so why would a beginner?
• Bazzite: too gaming focused, but the experience is great for the rest.
• Aurora/Bluefin: Never used it and don't know anyone who has, so I'm not going to experiment on someone who hasn't used linux before.

So for now, I'm choosing TuxedoOS for KDE, and Ubuntu for GNOME, but I can't say I'm truly happy with either of those choices for this use case.
