Ubuntu is lame. OP conveniently missed LM (desktop users) and Debian (servers)

Ahh I forgot Linux Mint! Should have put it in there or maybe Pop!_OS. Debian is fantastic for servers of course.

Mint has always been my go-to grandma-friendly system. I remember using it when I was in my single-digit years. Most intuitive operating system ever. :)

To be honest, I think most people should start with Linux Mint. So good. I don't even have to think much after installing.

Zorin too - it's rescued two old machines for me and is even more grandma-friendly than Mint imo. And I'm an actual old lady.

Zorin seems good. I unfortunately had crashing issues with it, but that was a long time ago (a few years, but I think it was in beta back then).
