"Most of those user-friendly distributions tend to be based on either Ubuntu or Debian because those two platforms go out of their way to make things easy. One such distribution that I believe could be the perfect option for those looking to make the jump from Windows is Q4OS. Q4OS is based on Debian and provides utilities and optimizations to help create an ideal operating system for those who want a desktop operating system that works for them, not against them."
"Recently, I was asked what desktop environment I would recommend to new Linux users, and my immediate response was "KDE Plasma." I find KDE Plasma to offer the perfect ratio of elegance and ease of use. KDE Plasma doesn't strip away the aesthetic in favor of simplicity. Instead, it balances those two aspects to perfection. Q4OS doesn't do anything really special to KDE Plasma, because it's not necessary. Even the vanilla KDE Plasma is perfectly suitable for new users. And for those with plenty of Linux experience, you can customize the desktop to your heart's desire."
Q4OS is a Debian-based distribution that supplies utilities and optimizations to create a desktop operating system focused on usability. Q4OS suits both newcomers and experienced Linux users by offering familiar, customizable desktops and practical tools. KDE Plasma provides a balance of elegance and ease, and Q4OS includes vanilla Plasma as a ready-to-use option. Trinity is available as an alternative desktop for those who prefer it. The Welcome app includes a Desktop Profiler to switch between full, basic, or minimal setups and to install other desktop environments. A special Windows installer simplifies the migration process, and the distribution is free to use.
