  • When choosing your first distro it’s probably best to go with one that is very popular - Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, Mint, etc. Niche distros are a surefire path to immediate troubleshooting.

    From there, decide what desktop environment you want. Most distros offer releases with various environments (KDE, Gnome).

    There are differences with package managers… who cares, you either run this command or that one to update.

    I second using a Live USB to run any distro release first so you can test drive it. If you use Ventoy on your USB drive you can put multiple distro ISOs on it instead of having to flash only one at a time.
