Consider Linux. I recommend the "Debian" flavor, with a "Mate" desktop.
It's a no-brainer to install. It works exactly like all the other desktops. And it's faster, more secure, more stable and doesn't try to sell you stuff. It's also free.
- techntoke 6y agoManjaro is much better, or Ubuntu. With Debian you'll be lucky to get acceleration support and constantly be searching for unofficial repos to install modern software.
- swayvil 6y agoI haven't tried Manjaro. Last time I checked Ubuntu was becoming a bit of a pig and it had suffered some kind of desktop disaster. I have not encountered the problems with Debian that you describe but maybe my needs (browsing, coding and light video editing) are just that small.
