If your proficiency is one step above clicking "next" on an installer, I recommend Debian.

  • Do a default installation. (Or if you're motivated, do a minimal one and install only what you need to get a GUI and Flatpak running).
  • Activate the backports repository and install linux-image-amd64 from Backports. That'll give you a newer kernel with newer drivers and support for newer hardware.
  • Then install all user software you need from Flatpaks.

That way you get a rock solid Debian base, current kernel, and fresh software.
