    If there is a recommendation that satisfies:

    • A nice looking UI with good fonts, and a clean interface.
    • The ability to run random Windows applications with minimal fuss.

    All without needing to use the terminal, then that will likely win the battle.

      Honestly Wine and Bottles are both pretty great at running windows programs these days, I wouldn’t worry to much about that so long as you check and make sure the critical software you need works.

      Just get over it and learn

      I also have to use terminal in Windows, and up until recently it was an awful useless terminal too

          Not really my place to prove it. Perhaps try something that isn’t Windows and you’ll see how much it truly does suck ass.

            My daily drivers are MacOS and Fedora (with Windows on my Surface Book), but I’m a software engineer, not the average person.

            I would love for Linux on the desktop to be viable for the average person, but there isn’t really a built-in option that can beat Windows at what it’s good at, and that’s backwards compatibility, and a clean interface that users know. The attitude of “well, Linux is just better” hasn’t worked for decades, and it never will until there is a distro that prioritises that (hard) switch.
