I grew tired of shitty “Top 10 Linux distros in ${CURRENT_YEAR}” articles so I wrote a blogpost, that I would personally consider helpful when I was starting out, so I can simply link it to people when they ask my opinion on a beginner distro.

Objective criticism is welcome and encouraged.

    Probably Mint or ElementaryOS are your safest bets. Personally I think being able to use the Linux terminal is an advantage though, way more reliable and consistent than windows’ settings/control panel/powershell fiasco

      I didn’t ask for a distro that didn’t have the terminal available.
