Yes. Ubuntu is goyware, but a good start for a Windows user. Use LMDE/Devuan if you want a better beginner distro (or normal Mint if you want to stay on Ubuntu without having your OS glow) or Fedora. Some people will recommend Arch based distros like Artix, but they're harder to set up for nufags and tend to be unstable.

you already committed a mistake by using (((Ubuntu))).
Debian has everythang idk why you use that trash distro, I don't even know if you know what a DE is with such an ass question

>>41474i use Ubuntu cause its stable also i dont really care about what DE i have or anything i just want my computer to be usable
i have heard some very good things about Debian but i want to make sure im %100 ready before i just switch distros completely

>>41472it seems like Debian is highly recommended i will check it out

>>41478any base linux distro is stable and a good amount of derivates idk what you're talking about, otherwise VPS providers wouldn't even add them to their OS image options, this really tells you don't know shit, go back to windows
β41484[Quote]
>>41478It's a very stable distro that just works. I used it and I liked it a lot. Best DE in my opinion is XFCE or KDE if you want it to look like Windows. Devuan is basically Debian but without
(((SystemD))), but that's a whole rabbit hole on its own.

>>41483Good luck having your Arch-based distro shit the bed because the new kernel version from 5 minutes ago wasn't tested on your PC

>>41486don't update ?
you can always revert kernel in grub

>>41487The point is that not all distros are made for Windows immigrants. Giving them Arch is just going to discourage them

i watched a few vids and looked at some forum posts and i think Debian is the correct option for me

>>41497Either Debian, Devuan or LMDE. Fedora if the NVIDIA drivers don't work on any of them.

also (OP here yet again) i already flashed Debain onto my USB but before i make the switch i have one last question:
is Fedora recommended? ive heard a lot of bad things about it but an equal amount of good things
β41505[Quote]
>>41500because I don't want randos to use Linux, either wait for daddy Gaben to make a toddler distro for you or gtfo, I use Linux for programming and other shit and I don't want any base to pander to tech illiterate people, all the resources are out there if you google the proper questions
β41506[Quote]
>>41505lol i literally switched from Windows to Ubuntu to code
β41507[Quote]
>>41504Only problem with Fedora is that you have to install codecs and install Nvidia drivers on your own but it's not that hard
It's a pretty good distro otherwise
β41508[Quote]
>>41504It's bad for some since it's made by a company (Red Hat), so true schizos prefer FOSS operating systems made by volunteers like Debian and such.
I hope you enjoy Debian btw! Ubuntu is based off Debian so the commands are the same.

>>41506ok so the answer to the original question, there is no "better distro to use" it's all about some specs out of the box and DE for UX, because of how package managers handle dependency trees it's not all flowers and sunshine with customizing the fuck out of a distro why you choose a specific one but this is a rabbithole and it's completely unnecessary unless you have some sort of autism.

>>41511>there is no "better distro to use"Distros vary widely for ease of use. Debian is easy while Arch is for autistic turbowizards who know more commands than the amount of times they have seen the sun. So on a subjective metric, yes, there are better distros to use.
>Intel eww Even though Coreboot and Libreboot exist and Intel is widely supported on any distro.
>it's not that hard techcacaβ¦NVIDIA is broken shit on Linux, how the fuck are you excusing that?
β41514[Quote]
>>41513idk why people cry abt nvidia all the time, if dkms fails just disable, purge, switch to latest kernel and reinstall or recompile, it takes about 15 minutes, you're not gonna fucking die.
I don't know how are you gonna excuse a processor produced in Israel with asscancer specs when AMD fucking destroys it with ginormous cache
OP asked about *better distro to use other than Ubuntu*, so you're not only failing on prolonged text comprehension but also failing to follow the discourse, if Ubuntu is allegedly not comfortable enough with basically a lot of handholding then I have no idea what to tell to OP. Is there a more cucked Linux other than Ubuntu ?
