Noooooob here: As title said - I don’t know what distro I should choose. My needs are student stuff like Libreoffice & Videoconferences but also creative things, photo-management and cutting videos. Does it matter at all? Do I have to check for every single program I use or is there a distro that is recommended?

I was planning on getting a Tuxedo with Tuxedo OS, but my neighbour recommended another “no os”-seller and now I’m not sure. I was opting for Tuxedo mainly because of the support since I’m leaving windows after many years^^

    A PS/2. No, not the fun thing that plays games, it is just a connecter.

    If you just want things to work I would suggest a Debian based distro like Ubuntu Studio. I have heard good things about these immutable systems, but I don’t really have much experience with them.

    On a side note, keyboards used to have a return key where the enter key is nowadays. It was for a carriage return which went to the new line. It was not for entering data into a field as there was a separate enter key for that.
