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.

I would say Nix but I presume you are a beginner so perhaps stick with Pop OS, Mint or Ubuntu.
I've been running Linux since the 90s and use popos. Nothing "beginner" about it.
It is beginner friendly, that was my point. At the end of the day it is Linux and you can do everything you can do on a normal Linux too.
