And that distro, or rather distro family is Fedora Atomic distros.
Anyone completely switching off windows needs a bulletproof system, and you just can’t get that with other distros. Especially if you’re allowed to modify system files. Universal Blue is the only project I’d consider to be aligned with this idea.

- For the developer: Blue Fin
- For the gamer: Bazzite
Users can install new apps via the Bazaar, or command line tools via homebrew. And that’s it.
If you want to mess around with other systems, you can use distro shelf or a spare computer. But if you’re a newbie, I wouldn’t even recommend Linux Mint anymore.
My daily distro is EndeavourOS btw.
A solid 90 percent of home users just need a browser, email, and access to some kind of app store or repository where they can click on the big colourful icon and get a program they want.
Any modern distro can provide that, it doesn’t have to be the particular one that you’ve got an obsession about.
