Hey everyone! So, Windows 10 is going to be unsupported soon, and I'm not really interested in upgrading to Windows 11 (and I bet you can guess why). I've been looking at a few Linux distributions, particularly Ubuntu, Debian, and Fedora, but I can't quite decide which one would be the best fit for me. I want something that isn't super beginner-friendly like Pop!_OS or Mint, but I definitely don't want to constantly troubleshoot drivers or spend too much time in the terminal. If anyone has some advice or insights on which distro I should go with, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

I personally prefer Fedora, especially the KDE edition. It just has a great interface and performance overall!
For me, Debian is my top choice! However, it might be a bit tricky for new users compared to the others. I'm curious though, why do you want something that isn't a 'beginner distro' but you’ve included Ubuntu in your options? Just wondering if you've considered Mint as well?
If you're planning to use it on a desktop or laptop, I’d suggest going with either Ubuntu or Fedora. Ubuntu generally has great out-of-the-box support for things like NVIDIA drivers, which is a big plus!
Great question! I think I’m wary of the super beginner distros because I want something I can learn and grow with, but I still want decent usability. That's why I thought Ubuntu could still be a good option.
