I want something that’s stupid easy to install, requires no setup, and has recording and gaming functionality from the beginning. I constantly see people shitting on ubuntu for semi-valid reasons, and I’m open to stable alterantives.

I’m installing it on this laptop :

NB : This is for mission critical etc laptop. This will be my only daily driver computer, stability is the topmost priority.

BONUS POINTS : If it’s debian based so I can run solarus : https://solarus-games.org/

    I recently switched to Ubuntu Cinnamon. I like it a lot, but I’ve had some headaches making some things work. It’s worth it me, as I will never return to Windows. I relied heavily on chatgpt to get me through tweaking it. Any errors I would receive in the bash terminal, I would paste into chatgpt and it would give me step by step instructions on what to do. I would have thrown the laptop in a pond without that, though. The technical barrier to entry isn’t too high, so long as you exercise a little patience.
