Finally making the transition from Windows to a Linux. I'm pretty sure it's been asked several times but which Linux OS would you recommend a beginner to use? I've seen Ubuntu and Mint as a good start. Not looking to do much. Game here and there (not too worried about Linux compatibility), streaming, editing videos. If I break any rules. I'm sorry.

I have heard that DaVinci resolve is very hard to set up.

On Bazzite (and probably the other ublue distros as well), you can run ujust install-resolve on the terminal, and that's it, you're good to go

And it works great when installed that way.
