Hello guys i have a qustion about which distro i should use?

I want to dual boot windows and linux

I just want a safe place away from microsoft eyes to do edit and drawing and other hobbies on my pc. And playing some games like cs2 & 2d games Also the distro run my wallpaper engine Should be popular distro so if i have a problem i can ask about it

Please dont tell me linux mint because i tried it 3 times and everytime i do anything simple the distro goes off and i should re install i won’t give it anymore chances thank you 😖

Edit: thank you guys for typing your suggests. after some search i will give bazzite try and if won’t work like i want. I will go with the other suggests I really enjoyed reading all your suggests

  • OP specifically declines to use Linux mint, per their final point in their post. As a 2 decade user who is currently using Mint, OP is right. The windows experience is so handholdey that new users often aren’t familiar with even HOW to research to fix their problems. Mint, a distribution that gives you training wheels but will not hold your hand is not ideal for someone who has already broken it several times, doing activities they didn’t feel were necessary to share.

    OP needs an immutable distro.
