Debian with XFCE, KDE is too base-windows
Or Arch with a window manager like awesome but learn your stuff first (I bricked my first arch system)

The only thing you really have to tinker with nowadays is old games, and ChatGPT helps with that. Windows is also always running shit in the background and hogging resources. It's slow and annoying to use.

Mint is cozy. OpenMandriva is anti-woke. Alpine is minimalist and old-school (uses OpenRC instead of the systemd clusterfuck for instance). Depends on what you want. If you want games, Mint has a precompiled amdgpu driver that easy to install - if you have an nvidia gpu then things are a little harder. I believe OpenMandriva has the same ease with the amdgpu driver. Alpine is cozy if you don't need games, and you can compile your own vid drivers easily. If you're ab absolute retard who can't computer, elementaryOS.

Depends on what you need.

Linux has all the of the mentioned, only shoved down your throat with different brands titles
In addition there are far fewer linux users so they're easier to monitor and keep tabs on.

I saw a video saying one of the EU countries was switching all govt computers to some flavor of Linux because they wanted to reduce reliance on Microsoft and save money, so maybe the whole EU will mandate that eventually.

the world govermewnts are working hand in hhand with microsoft to take high powered computing out of the hand of average people.
HAve you ever had a comment section not allow you to say nigger? Well the Govt wants all computers to run remotely on Government servers where they can blanket enforce whatever control over you they want because they can just deny you access to the network which will soon completely be the only way to interact with society including financially
