User-friendly Linux distro is a myth.

Unfortunately I have to do both ;n;

I'd just rather use Windows and not have to deal with my games not being supported, explaining to people how to print a word document or have to mess with wifi drivers.

Actually Windows is much more convenient to use, if you just log-in everywhere and use it as a "normal human". The thing is we don't like companies taking our lifes, we demand freedom, thats why windows is a hell for us, but for most its convenient.

Really?

Because nothing I use works in Linux or at least doesn't easily.

My 10 year old Logjtech mouse doesn't work, at all, until I Google how to make it work.

Then there's OneNote, which syncs directly with every machine, no server required.

Or excel - got Tables in Libre office yet? You know, what 97% of people use Excel for?

I could go on for days. At every turn, Linux is inferior to Windows as a desktop.

And I use Linux every day as a server: Truenas, Proxmox, Freedombox, Rpi, etc. It's briliant for purpose-built systems.

There's no beginner friendly Linux OS, but.......if you willing to learn a thing or two about linux (at least know how to install programs, updating system, & install your favorite Windows program on wine bc you can't find equivalent linux program) i think you'll loved Linux so much because it's so flexible.
If you encounter errors, don't worry, there's answer how to fix it, all you need is Google/DuckDuckGo
