Zorin OS and Linux Mint are the best distros for beginners, Zorin was the one that got me to use Linux as my daily driver, right now I use Fedora Kinoite, but I'm planning to switch to Zorin OS 17 when it releases on august this year.

I would love to see a Fedora Silverblue distro with all the Zorin GNOME extensions.
I used to use it, but a nicely configured kde setup on any other distro is generally going to be a better experience imo. personally I've been on endeavourOS with gnome because I wanted to try gnome 44 but it's very much a different experience to windows versus the default KDE setup
I started with ubuntu, then tried manjaro and then arch. and just bounced around a bunch of distros (i mean, thats kinda one of the fun part of linux is it not lol). I landed on debian based ones for my needs. But yeah, i've been looking at endeavour for a moment it looks nice, and pacman is the better package manager too imo. i either go dwm or gnome, have not dabbled in kde yet
Zorin was my first distro, and I agree that it works great out of the box!
I switched to Linux Mint later, but I can't remember exactly why. Linux Mint is nice to use too.
I love linux mint, its so clean and stable and everything works great.
