List of Best Linux Distributions for New Linux Users (Beginners)

Ubuntu

Now Ubuntu is an extremely popular option mostly because it is extremely user friendly and great for beginners. I personally use Ubuntu for my office work, and the tool I use the most is Libre Office. While I’m still an MS Office fan, Libre Office is a pretty good alternative that is easy to use.

What’s great

• Ubuntu is extremely secure and doesn’t easily fall prey to malware.
• It is great if you’ve been working on an OS X operating system, because you won’t feel the difference too much.
• Ubuntu also comes with loads of pre-installed software.

What’s not so great

• Since most hardware developers are inclined towards Windows, you might not encounter too much hardware support for Ubuntu.
• Gaming on Ubuntu is a little hard, since you can’t just download and install your games. You’ll need to install codecs first, and the process is a little complicated for newbies.
