I’ll be trying out Linux outside of a virtual machine for the first time. I’ve got a SATA SSD external enclosure that I’ll be using to boot without messing with my current pc

Good luck! What distro are you trying?

I’m probably going to stick with something simple like Ubuntu 22.04 since some software I use is only supported on that.

You could also try linux mint, ubuntu has been doing some sketchy stuff lately.
