7. I was really impressed by Zorin OS back 20 years ago

Zorin OS was part of the early easy to use cohort, Linux Mint and Ubuntu itself are also part of that group. Any of those three would be good starts for a Windows refugee. Zorin's strength is being setup with tools to make running a windows app as easy as can be. That would only matter if there isn't a native linux version of the specific software.

I have flitted from Windows to Mac to Linux to some times on windows recently. The last time I got into trouble with an intel firmware update I tried MX Linux and while it didn't fix the hardware issue I have stuck with it. It has now followed me through a few subsequent machines via just moving the Nvme SSD onto the next one. I think I'm coming on three years now.
