Top recommendation of within one hour of me posting this decides what distro I install. Please not Hannah Montana linux or even worse, Arch.
I leave the decision up to you.
Edit:
The winner was linux mint. I’ve downloaded the ISO and am installing now. I hope my boss doesn’t get pissed.
I’m not going in totally blind - I have experience with using linux on the server side. I’ve just never used it for a personal desktop environment.
Then it might be nice to start off with whatever distro you were using so you’re familiar with the package manager and then just get yourself a DE/WM (or Wayland compositor but I think Wayland isn’t quite far enough to start off with yet although I’ve only used Hyprland) that you’ll be happy with. Then when you’ve gotten used to everything it’s much easier to try out new stuff.
