Fedora is my recommendation of choice. The default Fedora + Gnome workflow out of the box is absolutely flawless.

Yeah that's the beauty of it isn't it.. a lot of distros and desktop environments to choose from; there is a flavor for anyone!

For anyone switching from windows I recommend KDE Plasma as it'll feel closest to what you are used to.

Yeah, as a Windows user it's very intuitive and easy to navigate. My only problem with KDE Plasma, and this would not prevent me from using it altogether, is that there's this relatively large hover window that pops up if you accidentally swerve the mouse over anything on the task bar, and takes a couple seconds to die. Soooooo irritating.

This hover thing would probably take thirty seconds to turn off if I knew how, but it's hard to search for when I can't figure out what it's called, and "hover" doesn't get me anything useful.

If I could turn that shit off I would have zero problems with KDE Plasma. It's a legit great interface.
