with the recent windows news, I wanna switch to Linux. I tried mint a few years ago and was annoyed and frustrated with multiple things, like having to input the password all the time and the general ammunt of constant trouble shooting and needing a tutorial for the most basic things.
I want a distro that:
- Is very user friendly, ideally not requiring a terminal
- Is hard to accidentally fuck up
- ideally doesn’t require a password for every input
I basically just use my laptop to browse the web, draw in krita and use ms office apps (have been getting used to open office lately)
What do y’all suggest?
I’m sure you could manage to do a lot of things without a terminal on something like Fedora or Mint, but you really should just learn to use the command line. If you’re expecting it to be anything close to the windows command line it is not, it’s way easier to use and you’ll be able to do things so much faster than you ever could with a gui on windows. Learning everything you really need shouldn’t take more than a couple hours.
The one other option I can think of is ChromeOS Flex, but even there you’re going to have a way better experience if you learn to do things from the command line when appropriate
