Linux users can’t even agree on what distro is actually beginner friendly, so how am I supposed to pick one with any confidence?
@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.
@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
