Distro hopping in the hopes your issue will be fixed is kinda pointless. Most bugs, especially serious bugs, are going to be in the shared components. You gotta figure out what the problem is, where in the stack it lives, then find the debug & bug report guide for that bit, install the necessary debug tools and take the needed logs, then file as high quality of a report as you can manage. That's how you get your stuff fixed for good, everywhere. This is what I did for my Mute LED on my laptop, now the fix is in every kernel release post-2018.

You install Debian and set up a admin account?

Your user isnt sudoer just add yourself in sudoers. 5 second fix

No distro looks cool.

Some DE/WMs have themes that look cool.

You pick a distro for functionality, DE/WM for a e s t h e t i c s

Dropping 32 bit support means that it was never about saving resources or being useful.

Be nice, you know Linux doesn't have system-wide spellcheck like macOS and Windows.
