Just giggled as my last meme mentioned trouble with displays and appropriately, a large chunk of the replies were “well MY displays work just fine!” (And charmingly, many were thoughts of things to check, other distros etc. It’s a very kind community, though that may also be the fediverse.)


I’m leaning more and more to recommending Atomic distros for newcomers now. Fedora SilverBlue or Kinonite are excellent choices. Bazzite or Aurora for gamers. It’s pretty hard for newbies to mess up their install and rolling back to a working install is easy if you do. All the while letting users install software without effort through flatpacks and appImages. Even updates can be automated easily.
You can also switch between all of the ones you named using
ostree rebaseor so, which is pretty rad
