Avoid Ubuntu and Manjaro: despite being marketed as “beginner friendly distros”, and despite often running perfectly fine, these two have major issues in management, packaging policies or philosophy that might make your life as a beginner difficult.
That makes no sense. Manjaro is actually one of the few distros where a beginner won’t need to touch the terminal ever. You won’t have to deal with adding PPAs or removing snaps like in several debian/ubuntu based distros.
