I think those are pretty bad recommendations.

IIRC CachyOS is just Arch with some compiler optimizations and a better scheduler than default...so not what I would call beginner-friendly.

Seconding what marcie said about Bazzite.

Mint certainly is boring and stable. My recommendation is to use flatpaks for your apps since the packages in the Mint repos might be a few versions behind.
