Looking to dip my toes into Linux for the first time. I have a 2016 Intel MacBook Pro with pretty solid specs collecting dust right now that I think I’m going to use. Research so far has indicated to me that the two best options for me are likely Mint or Elementary OS. Does anyone have any insight? Also open to other OS’s. I would consider myself decently tech savvy but I am not a programmer or anything. Comfortable dipping into the terminal when the need arises and all that.
The last time I tried installing on a MacBook I had all kinds of problems. Maybe it is better now, but I’d suggest starting with a traditional PC if you’re brand new to Linux

What kind of problems?
How is UEFI on Macbooks? Its not Microsoft stuff, where Ubuntu and Fedora are having officially signed images.
I just installed antiX and then MX on a 2008 macbook pro. It didn’t want to boot from a USB so I burned a DVD.
