    This picture is incomplete.

    You need another guy on the ledt side, just casually watching as the others fight. That’s Debian.

    The poor dude being shoved into the locker is Suse.

    The bully is Ubuntu.

    Now we need a bigger guy behind the bully, waiting to get his hands on the bully. That will be RedHat.

    Arch will be behind RedHat, getting ready to punch him in the face.

    Gentoo will be right behind Arch, laughing like a maniac at the carnage unfolding.

    And to the far right side of the picture you get to see this underrated guy, just shrugging his shoulders. That’s LFS.

      I wanna use Linux, but last time I tried I had so many issues that it made it almost impossible to be productive. There are so many possible variations of a setup that trying to find answers either resulted in incorrect or just downright combative responses

          Or the one I got a lot: “why did you chose that distro? You need to be using [completely different distro each time]”

            Yeah, that is definitely an onboarding issue. Everyone has their preferences, and normally feel quite strongly their favourite distro is the best one.

            I think most people would agree that Pop_OS and Linux mint are currently the most newb friendly distros out there.
