    The distro recommendation is usually mint, but I’d like to know, what does your setup look like? (Monitor specs, PC specs etc)

      It’s a laptop with i3 gen 11, 12GB RAM, and I mainly use it for browsing, torrenting and watching movies (4K, connected to a TV)

        Oh yeah, then if you like the look of it, Linux mint is the best option

          Looks good! I’ll give it a try this weekend, thanks!

          Edit: I just installed it, it looks great! I find it very funny that one of the apps I was worried about was the HP scanner and it worked seamlessly on mint without installing additional drivers or apps so I can stop using that stupid HP app

          Edit2: I also found out that my windows installation (system, drivers, updates, other files that I cannot delete safely) takes about 70Gb out of my 250GB SSD, even after running many commands to try to clean it up
