Finally making the transition from Windows to a Linux. I'm pretty sure it's been asked several times but which Linux OS would you recommend a beginner to use? I've seen Ubuntu and Mint as a good start. Not looking to do much. Game here and there (not too worried about Linux compatibility), streaming, editing videos. If I break any rules. I'm sorry.

Besides almost everything availiable to try on Windows before the switch, I've seen Nobara writing on their page about their media-focus, mentioning DaVinci Resolve workarounds from out of the box. I've not tried it yet.
