Best Linux Distro Privacy/Usability for a mid level user

What do you think is the best linux distro for a user who wants to migrate from windows in terms of privacy, usability and respect for the FOSS spirit?

I'm thinking to give a chance to #ElementaryOS https://elementary.io

@Encryption @privacy I've discarded Ubuntu due to snapd. Does Linux mint also use snapd? 🤔

Linux Mint makes a point of excluding all the Snap stuff. It's a very good distro where everything usually just works.
