I was hoping someone could give a recommendation for a noob friendly distro that works well on my laptop, an HP Envy x360 Convertible 15m-es0xxx, i7 16 GB RAM. Thanks for your help and I apologize if these questions aren’t allowed here

This is a pretty good start to make Mint (Cinnamon) look better.
Its basically mall built-in tools.
I ended up just putting icons in the middle (to prepare for works Win11 enremovedification).
I also put a user button near the time to allow shutdown and removed the god awful power icons from the start menu (or whatever the app launcher is called).
Theres also an extend thin for a bigger start menu more like a grid but thats personal preference.
I think mint should do some of these things so its not so off putting. It held me back forming for so long but IRS much better.
I prefer mint over fedora. Fedora dosnt seem to have as many apps in the store. Yes you can use a terminal but thats not helping linux become mainstream, mint is.
+1 mint also prompts new users to setup timeshift backups.
