I've always wanted to switch to Linux so why not start now. The question is, what really is best for me? Should I experiment with various distributions? Are there varying levels of security with them? And more curiously, what is Poal using?

Mint looked like a great place to dip my toes, but I was thinking either openSUSE or Arch based on one of the guides posted here.

Any and all advice is appreciated!

It is in the manual, plain as day.

Why use Linux if you do not want to learn it? Go be a normie on Mac ffs.

Well not the best memory so cannot memorize those commands, also I don't have a smart phone or other internet device to go to the arch wiki to read that and before you ask no printer to print out the page. Stuck at the setup back then with no resources to let me move forward especially internet based resources.

Go to library and print or write it down. Learn to be resourceful?

You are the edge case with only one computer device in your house.
