Well, there are a lot of newb-friendly distros these days. Some options:
Linux Mint (any spin) - one of the easiest to get help with online, with minimal compromises
Fedora - also pretty easy to get help w/ online
Bazzite - great if you just want to play games; it’s about as close to SteamOS as you get w/o an official release
Any of those should be pretty friendly to users new to Linux, and they go roughly in order from fitness as a regular desktop (top down) to fitness for gaming (bottom up), but any of them can handle gaming and desktop stuff pretty equivalently.
