I’d start with Pop!OS or Linux Mint. They both are beginner friendly.

Especially Pop runs well with NVIDIA GPUs. AMD is no problem on either.

I personally think that Pop has the best out of the box, everything is just running, experience.

That’s just not true. If you give your 90yo grandma a Windows computer she is gonna struggle hard.

You are a Windows user for now. You need to learn Linux as you learned Windows years ago.

To be honest it seems like it’s a specific problem to you. I use Linux desktop for many years and for 3 years exclusively and it’s a much better experience for me than Windows (in every aspect).

I think it’s just a lack of experience on your side. You are comparing your years of experience on Windows with a OS you barely know.

Just because you are a “power user” on Windows doesn’t mean you can handle Linux the same way.

I use Arch, btw. And PopOS and NixOS.

Too little too late imo.

PopOS was my first “full time no Windows”-Linux. I still like it and use it on my laptop but my new daily driver is NixOS.

But I also want to say thank you to System76 for this great distro.

I hope Cosmic is gonna be as great as I believe it’s going to be.

And I really hope they are going to rename their distro to Cosmic Linux.

That’s what Apple is all about “Good hardware very bad software”
