I'd say start out with Linux Mint (debian edition) if you need something simple. Bazziteos if you're a gamer. Jump around as you see fit. Maybe put it on a vm to test it out or make a ventoy usb to put a bunch of isos on and test them all out.
when you say test them out what am I looking for? I really truthfully play very simple low demand games and older games a little, I mostly use my computer for browsing/writing/work.
easy to install, free of bullshit and compatible with Firefox lol also light demand my laptop is a little guy
When I say gaming I mean steam, proton, Wine, epic games stuff is pretty much pre installed, if you don't need all that then linux mint should do fine
