From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Unpopular opinion but ubuntu.
You will eventually run into an error you have never seen before and and someone using ubuntu has already solved it and posted it online somewhere.
POP!_OS*
About to get a new laptop, and it's gonna Pop!
I’m loving Pop!_OS, would love to get one of their laptops as well but the shipping fee is insane
mint or lmde?
Mint is based on Ubuntu and LMDE is based on Debian. I think Mint is more up-to-date and more newbie friendly.
And they solved it by reading the ArchWiki 99% sure.
Arch, btw 🙄
Counter point, Ubuntu specifically has so many old posts and answers that aren't necessary in modern systems, deprecated, or straight up no longer correct. Also a lot of recommendations that can screw up a system in strange ways. I feel like many issues (ie. Bluetooth, USB, Wifi) are due to people stumbling on old posts with configs and tools that have changed and blindly applying them
Really unpopular opinion: Windows.
It's not yet a Linux distro :3
Linux wasn't /techically/ specified...
