Quite a few posts about selecting a distro to use. Maybe it’s time to make that link a little more prominent?

    The suggested distros have advantages and disadvantages stated for the responses you gave. For example, I simulated being a newbie here: https://distrochooser.de/en/d5b60b6e6134/

    Mint, Zorin, Ubuntu flavors, Pop!OS are on top. Then OpenSuse is listed and it has a caveat “May require additional configuration for gaming”. The ones below that all have such warnings and reasons why it wouldn’t recommend it e.g for Knoppix “Can be used for daily work, but is built for live-mode”.

      I look at it, and I have to scroll down 10 entries before I see something that isn’t all plus signs. Yes, you can count them, but at a glance it gives you choice paralysis. Not to mention how obnoxious seeing every single DE of Ubuntu is, and how distros like elementaryOS shouldn’t be chosen by anyone.
