Stop recommending Mint, especially to beginners. Ubuntu, Fedora, and Bazzite are all better for first time users because they actually work, they have much larger support networks, and are overall much higher quality with a focus on basic reliability.

My recommendations:

Try Bazzite first. If you want more control, switch to Fedora.

Avoid Ubuntu at all costs.
