Just FYI, or rather FTI, the arch wiki can still be a useful tool for non-arch distro. Debian also has a wiki.
They need to understand there are differences between arch and Mint, of course, and also some between Debian and Mint to an extent, but those tools can still provide helpful info.
Fedora, specifically the DE you are using.
I normally go with Mint as a recommendation but generally speaking you must understand these people will ask you for help for any small issue, so it will be a lot easier if you use the system yourself.
Now, I use ArchBTW with KDE, and I would never recommend arch to a new user (KDE is a good choice tho), meaning I normally recommend Mint (from experience I know noobs love it), so I am in this awkward situation where I have to provide tech support to mint users usually (tho TBF so far only 1 person and the real issue is that his laptop is dying but he hasn’t come to terms with it) and it is sometimes annoying because I don’t know the settings layout and all that stupid GUI shit (I love using the CLI a lot if you couldn’t tell)
Tech worker and enthusiast vs slopper
Why is it so hard for these idiots to understand that:
A) fascists will vote the percieved OG fascist party, not the copycat
B) people who vote CDU and don’t like AfD will be alienated by this move
C) if AfD is a problem to democracy then becoming the AfD is a problem too
