I’m more of a bottom, if you know what I mean.

Try Typst! It’s quite awesome! I wrote my thesis with it :)

I’d recommend https://typst.app/. Super easy to structure text like LaTeX and 100 times easier to use :)

Not entirely agreeing, but there are some things that are not quite there yet. For me it’s mostly:

• Bibliography sorting
• Spellchecking
• Syntax highlighting for lesser known programming languages like GDScript

Otherwise I don’t really have complaints. If anything LaTeX was the one thing setting me back (and don’t even get me started on Word).

There are official ones and there’s also https://github.com/qjcg/awesome-typst

I took one of those and easily adjusted it to my needs. It’s so easy and intuitive! And fast!!!

Typst is awesome and sooo fast! I literally ported my thesis mid-way to it and haven’t looked back since. Love it all the way.

If you’re not a techy person/power user, I would recommend staying with Kubuntu/Xubuntu (flavors of Ubuntu, that seem familiar to Windows users), or a more loved variant Linux Mint. You’ll have everything you need there, and your gaming will do just fine using Steam thanks to Proton. My first time (~2014) I went with Ubuntu, since it has an easy to use installer (like most distributions), with relatively sane default settings. Nowadays I would recommend Linux Mint or anything Debian based for the stability.
