Okay great! An interesting tea combination: Mint with Cinnamon :) do most desktop environments work with most distros, or is there a list per each distro?

Thank you for the response! Those you said are getting a lot of mentions so I think Mint will be a good first choice to make the swap.
This is perfect! Thanks for linking it!
Lots of suggestions for Mint so it seems that's a good choice for me! Thank you!
Thanks! Why specifically an NVIDIA card?
Oh that's a shame.
Okay thank you for clarifying!
That's a great response! Thank you, that helps a lot.
Okay that's good advice. Thank you!
Okay great! I'll give those each a try. Thank you!
Okay thank you! Could you give some examples about tasks that "should be easy" but aren't? I've worked with MacOS casually and I thought it was based on Unix (maybe?), so I was at least aware that the way to maneuver through the desktop/settings/file searches are different from Windows of course. I am certainly not a power user, just getting frustrated with companies overstepping more and more and want to cut myself from their whims, if that makes sense.
What makes it the best, in terms of distro and desktop experience?
