I'm not a programmer. My brain just doesn't work that way. I wish it did. I've tried teaching myself Python, and I took a semester of Java. I understand pretty much zero.
I don't understand why some people insist on recommending NixOS as a first Linux distro. It's so far from the norm and beginner friendliness they must surely be joking.
I've been using Linux since 2007, and have tried many distros. I'm very happy with (and recommend) Linux Mint Debian Edition.
