Mint is one of the most popular Linux distribution that is based on Ubuntu devolped by Canonical, primarily due to its ease of use. It is one of the number one choice for newcommers to Linux.
What is a Linux distribution? It is a particular version of the Linux operating system which was created in 1991 by Linus Torvalds that has been customized by a company or group of people. Each distibution has it's own partucular customizations. Linux can be an excellent, and free, alternative to Windows and Macos.
In the past, it was true that Linux was mostly for the tech savy who could use the commandline and didn't need applications to accomplish their tasks. No longer! Today there are over 60,000 applications and climbing in a huge array of categories.
With the easy to use Software Manager, installing and uninstalling applications is simple. Browse the most popular programs, or by category. You can even search for a piece of software by name or function.
Need the basics? Email, calendar, the ability to open and save Microsoft Office documents (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)? Not only are these available but they come installed by default. Need modern browsers? The latest version of Firefox is installed right from the start and if you don't like that, Cromium, Brave, Opera, and Chrome are all available.
Password managers like Keepass and Bitwarden, email from Thunderbird, and much more. Today if you can't get it done under Linux, you probably don't need to get it done.
Feed your artistic nature with GNU photo editing, 3D packages such as Freecad and Blender, video players like VLC, converts like handbrake and matroska-tools. That's right, you can edit 16bit color images and 4k videos, all while designing 3D objects to print on your 3D printer. This wasn't possible just a few years ago, but it is today!
While streaming your favorite audio from Spotify, you can edit your podcast with Audacity, or play your MP3 collection with FooBar2000. Multimedia is baked right in today with hundreds of audio/video apps available from the software manager and other sources.

Please note that your computermustbe an Intel/AMD based PC. It does not work with Macs, Chromebooks, Tablets, Phones, etc. You may need to disable secure boot and enable UEFI boot mode.
Please note that while most modern operating systems support a very wide variety of hardware, there are so many models of computer and so many hardware configurations that no operating system is fully compatible with every possible setup. It is always a good idea to do a little research, such as a web search for your computer's model no. and the operating system you wish to install, to try to verify compatibility. Lastly, while installing an operating system has become a relatively straightforward procedure, it does help to have some level of comfort with working on computers, as tasks like updating BIOS settings may be necessary.
