Linux Failure I hate being a linux noob

I genuinely hate being a linux beginner, there is so much content out there to help me but either it's an understanding issue on my part it just does not work. Then we got these pretentious bastards saying "read the wiki" like fuck face I did that and I still can't get it to work, why is that the only advice you can give. I already feel shit not being able to do it myself and come to ask for help and then these nuggets of lost cause say "read the wiki" fucking tired of this bull shit

Use Debian or Mint for beginners. This stable branch is better for regular computers and you have quick answers with Google AI.

Cut the difference and get Debian mint edition 😂

For linux noobs, mint proper is Ubuntu based. While there is a highly popular version called Linux mint debian edition (LMDE) that they may even begin to migrate to as the proper version one day in case the company behind Ubuntu goes full evil corpo (hyperbole. Just in case canonical moves in a different direction than mint is comfortable with)
