Bazzite is so easy to set up it’s kind of ridiculous. I ended up jumping to straight Fedora just so I can fiddle with things a little more, but for 99% of users the immutable distro thing is perfectly fine

If you move to one of the big supported distributions, you’ll be extremely surprised how easy it is.

If you just want things to stay consistent and easy, I can’t recommend Linux mint enough. I installed it on my son’s laptop almost two years ago and he’s never needed my help to fix anything since.

The installation walks you through everything, just like Windows, but it’ll only take about the third of the time. Everything just works and there’s no trash to uninstall or debloat scripts to run when you’re done.

If you do any gaming you might want to run Fedora or bazzite (fedora with training wheels), but if you’re using KDE for the desktop that’s almost as easy and seamless.
