I grew tired of shitty “Top 10 Linux distros in ${CURRENT_YEAR}” articles so I wrote a blogpost, that I would personally consider helpful when I was starting out, so I can simply link it to people when they ask my opinion on a beginner distro.

Objective criticism is welcome and encouraged.

    I think the DE/WM makes a huge difference. Had most success with beginners using Cinnamon on Mint/Debian or pure Debian. This with folks coming from Windows and total newstarters (young kids) alike.
