I'm to dumb for ARCH, and I find default Fedora and Ubuntu very annoying (although I haven't tried them in a while). I did have a good experience with mint several years ago. What distros should I consider?
Mint is still basically mint from several years ago. Having tried a dizzying array of them it continues to be easy and hated on because it doesn't involve text based configing your life away. That said, because it lags behind compared to other distros in updating the kernel, the thing that makes new hardware work, it can have a hard time with things made recently. Try the edge ISO, which has a newer kernel. The team is working on more frequent updates, Wayland (a thing you ideally never have to ever know what it is), and just delivers a comfortable desktop experience since I first screwed up my computers with Linux in 2007.
Linux Mint, Pop!_OS and ZorinOS are pretty nice for new users. If you want to get a little more advanced, maybe check out something like Fedora Atomic (e.g. Kinoite, Silverblue) or Universal Blue (Bazzite, Aurora, Bluefin). Arch isn't actually that hard, they have an installation script that makes everything super easy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YE1LlTxfMQ), or you could watch a video on how to install it manually (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JYIAaLrwcY, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YC7NMbl4goo)
Fedora (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
btw
Is this for real? They're already quitting support for win10? Ain't no fucking way I'm going to win11 so Linux it is I guess.
Bro linux is SO FUCKING GOOD nowadays, you're going to love it. Debian, Arch, whatever its all gravy
Can I use Video Editing programs like Vegas on Linux?
KDEnlive is useful for inline video editing, and Davinci Resolve is more of a pro level tool. I have no idea about Vegas.
Vegas work under proton
shoving down mandatory AI down everyone's throats I see? Probably part of a behind the scenes push by government or sth since they will be tracking and recording everything going forwards. I can even see people crying "But think of the AI!"
