I don't really feel like going down the rabbit hole of trying a hundred different distros to maybe find one that works. My experiences with those two were that things were completely broken, randomly. Like just trying to boot the USB installer would lock up half the time, the installer itself would fail partway through most of the time, when things got fully installed, trying to update or install new things would just fail randomly. The kde desktop would crash just from me changing settings in the kde menus.
I would try Ubuntu in your shoes, personally. It's got downsides but it's definitely plug and play. I don't know what metrics distrowatch uses to rate distros but it's widely known that Ubuntu is user friendly as hell.
sounds like you've made up your mind. wnjoy windows 11!
