OP when they try Debian and it’s exactly what it advertises itself as:

I took psychic damage just from seeing both of their names in a headline together

IoT is supported until January 2032, while standard LTSC is only supported until January 2027, which only, like, an extra year or so of support over regular Windows 10. I’ve never heard anything about IoT being less secure but I’m far from being an expert lol.

and then everyone clapped

Am I having a stroke, or is this headline horrendously written?

Who would’ve thought that an incredibly dubious claim to “ownership” of a JPEG image would fall in value so dramatically?

The biggest advice I can give is to start with something like, as has been mentioned, Linux Mint, but also, don’t buy into the idea that you eventually need to move to a more “advanced” distro. If Mint, or wherever you wind up, works for you, and you have no compelling reason to switch, then don’t. All Linux is Linux, so to speak, the only things that distinguish distros are packages/package managers, default settings/configurations, and pre-installed programs. There’s nothing preventing you from eventually becoming a power-user on a “noob-friendly” distro, if that’s something you desire in the first place.
