First of all I recommand that no matter what distribution you get, that you should get one that has KDE as desktop environment as it looks mostly like windows and that would make it easy for you to get used to it.
As for what distro to use well that depends. While searching for info on how to do things when I first went to Linux most posts that I found were for Ubuntu.
Which was annoying as I did not want Ubuntu and I was using Mangaro and later went to Arch.
Manjaro is based on Arch so you can use documentați and forum answers from both Manjaro and Arch. Also Arch has very good documentation but it's a little too technical for someone that just started using Linux and might confuse you more then answer your questions.
My recomandation would be Manjaro but Ubuntu seems to be easier to find info for!
I also recommend to use ChatGPT or better yet the edge specific ChatGPT(as it is connected to the internet) for answer to problems you have encountered. It's not perfect but it's very helpful.
