hey nerds, I’m getting myself a new personal laptop as a treat, but I very much do not want windows 11 shitting it up. Is there a linux distro with caveman-compatible instructions for installation and use? I want to think about my OS as little as possible while actually using it.

I’ve got one friend who uses mint, but I’ve also seen memes dunking on it so who knows. I actually really only know what I’ve seen from you all shitposting in other communities

    A decade and a half ago I used Ubuntu exclusively for a couple years. I only stopped when a scanner I needed for work would only work with windows. That’s still my only experience with Linux but it was pretty rewarding. I was particularly proud of getting past issues with dual screens and using a projector as my primary monitor. I imagine it’s even more user friendly now.
