That’s the issue. Arch and it’s wiki are labyrinths for beginners.
For anyone not interested in tinkering all-day long they’re better off using fedora, debian or suse.

They’ll likely get drowned in the birdie’s gigantic pile of cash.
Use a separate bootloader partition for every OS. Windows is known for destroying non-windows bootloaders. It rarely, if ever, touches anything else. Many distros have a /boot partition with initramfs since grub might not support booting from the root partition’s filesystem. Integrity is ensured with secure boot, /boot encryption is optional.
LUKS is straightforward, and most non-DIY distros have encrypted root support built-in.
Gnome has Google drive support in the file manager itself, although it’s not exposed to CLI yet.
If you’re not short on storage, I personally highly recommend Flatpaks as they are containerised whilst also come with a sandbox solution. Avoid non-default frontends when using system packages.
Check out immutable/image-based distros like Fedora Silverblue. They are proved to be extremely reliable and need little to no manual maintenance since all changes are atomic and generate a brand new OS.
Avoid Nvidia GPUs. Their proprietary drivers are compatibility nightmares.
