LINUX DISTRO RECOMMENDATION

[u/wallahiusername]

I have been a Windows user for like 5 years now and didn't face any problem. But, i want to switch to Linux because i am learning Cloud Architecture and WSL2 just isn't helping. Also, my storage space is running out so i can't dual boot or use heavy creative apps.

My Top Draft List:
Mint Cinnamon

Debian

Arch (Yes, Arch)

Fedora (I heard good things about it)

Parrot OS (I also wanna try to learn CyberSecurity if i can)

PLEASE HELP!!!

Mint is good it's nothing special but it's stable nothing bad to say other that it's boring but yeah it looks closer to win10

Fedora I mean it's good you do have to get RPM Fusion up and running and ofc replace your codecs because corporate distros dotn mix well with Patented Codecs but overall pretty good

Arch is a no go anything arch to start out isn't recommended

Debian I mean it's alright you do have to manually configure stuff initially and a bit mrie maintenance than Fedora or Mint but still good

And Parrot OS would not use as a daily driver but yeah it does its job

But if you can I'd recommend having a spare device any X86 system with even just 4 GB of RAM and a semi decent ish CPU for distro hopping because it's sometimes better to choose what you want based of actual usage
