If you want a EAVEN more windows like distro I will recomend nobara. The official version is a windows 7 styled gnome and it is based on fedora.
i havent really looked into that, been mostly researching debian based distros specifically ubuntu and it's bunch since a lot of recommendations go to it. nobara looks interesting for the big gaming spin it has though i'm still iffy on being at home with linux for games, but from the outside looking in things like proton seem to be doing a lot of good in that space recently.
I started with Mint and then moved on. Honestly I think Debian based ones are not nearly as good as Redhat or Arch based. You can get easy to use versions such as Fedora or Manjaro without being a headache at all, and their systems are superior to PPAs (which in itself is far superior to windows updating). Obviously my opinion is not the end all, but I highly recommend branching out a bit and trying things with the different base systems. I thought Debian was the bees knees, then tried the others and really haven't looked back.
