I currently have a win 11 machine and would like to dual boot with Linux. Looking at some of the different options, it seems many aren't recommended for dual booting. Are there any that are?

You should focus less on dual boot and more on beginner-friendliness. If the distro is very good at dual booting (actually never heard of such a thing) but is a catastrophe concerning usability, then it doesn't make sense i guess. Don't install Linux to hate it :-). Just try a user friendly distro like Mint or maybe even Manjaro. ( Sooner or later you will end up using Arch and tell people on the internet, that you're using Arch btw. I'm using Arch btw.)

With the numerous issues that Manjaro has, i suggest against it
