You should definitely consider using more mainstream distros so you can easily find the help you need until you are comfortable and feel confident with using Linux. permalink fedilink source parent [–] nomadjoanne@lemmy.world 11 points 3 years ago I'd use a mainstream distro. I came to Linux in 2017, used Ubuntu for 4 years until I got tired of them forcing snaps down my throat, and then went to Arch. I have never distro-hopped, but I also have never had any huge issues with the mainstream distros. The main distros really are well maintained and do tend to "just work". Dare I say, especially Ubuntu. permalink fedilink source parent [–] yum13241@lemm.ee 1 point 3 years ago Maybe try endeavorOS? permalink fedilink source parent
