This but new Linux users. They get attracted to the worse newbies distros every time

What’s the best one, apart from Mint?

The typical advice is:

  • Mint
  • ElementryOS
  • Fedora
  • Pop!
  • Ubuntu (unpopular with Extremely Online people, but is pretty good at the Just Works for normies)

Fedora

really? I haven’t touched regular fedora, how is the “vanilla” version different to derivities and other “vanilla” distros like debian or arch?

Yeah, vanilla Fedora comes in both KDE and Gnome flavors, with good hardware support and a large community. For noobies, a good, familiarish desktop environment and comprehensive hardware support are really the most important things for them not to immediately bounce off.

Fedora is pretty good. However in order to install drivers or firmware for specific hardware can be more difficult as it involves adding extra repositories.
