I've being using Linux for almost a year and have had a similar experience. From what I've read, Ubuntu was easier to install in the past but today (at least with Debian 12 Bookworm) Debian is just as easy to install and use imo. I've actually had less problems with Debian compared to when I was using Ubuntu.

In the past Ubuntu had a little pop up when you booted with Nvidia graphics, installed the correct drivers and just worked. Debian required you to install manually with all the fun involved. All the other distros have caught up so there is less to sell Ubuntu on, but it was one of the first. They also had their 1000 paper cuts project where they spent a lot of time fixing everyone else's bugs and submitting PRs.
