Basically, which linux distro is the best for a non-power user? Someone who wants to be able to get up and running without having to learn how to manage the OS using the cli.

Quick example: When I install a new OS, the first thing I want to do is install Brave. That should be as easy as "click on this thing, type in brave, select Brave, install."

Fedora Silverblue or openSUSE Aeon, I'd probably say.

If you really don’t want to even be encouraged to touch the command line but do everything through a graphical software store (that’ll be gnome software) while still having access to everything you need, one of these two is currently the way to go. I just came across this older article comparing them, and it seems for the new user openSUSE Aeon (micro os, formerly) wins out in minimal fiddling.
