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.

If you are pretty sure this been asked several times, why the fuck do you post this shit again? Real answer, you don't have the balls to make the change, instead, you are here looking for validation from internet strangers. Just stick to windows or better yet get a mac, is more suited for stupid people like you.

What goes inside your mind to say things like that, to other people. The might or might not have been seeking an advice, but you're just acting like a buffoon nonetheless, and also a horrible take.
