As others have said, Linux Mint (Cinnamon) is an obvious choice.
Alternatively, I recommend Tuxedo OS. It’s a KDE based distro developed by a German company that makes various computers which run Linux out of the box. You get the developer support of a company that ships machines with the distro (like System 76’s Pop!_OS) and a more Windows like experience than Pop!_OS’ gnome desktop environment.
I’ve been playing a lot of Melffy-Spright on DB and at locals. I’ve been really enjoying it. Iblee lock + 4-5 interruptions feels great.
When playing for fun I enjoy Virtual World. The CYAC support provides a way to make lvl 10 synchros and catches people off guard.
The right-wing Finnish “populist” party has a neo-Nazi scandal already? I, for one, am shocked /s
I really enjoy going into the city and playing various board games and TCGs. Especially Yu-Gi-Oh at Strictly Singles Sports Cards.
Home Depot and Rona both have plexiglass. They don’t have 16x16 though, so you’ll probably need to cut it yourself.
I like to use Duelingbook and Dueling Nexus. Duelingbook is great for playing more rogue builds in unrated and even has a Goat format queue.
