Very true, I began my own linux journey, almost 20 years ago (fuck I feel old) with Ubuntu, not for any other reason other than it being the only linux distro that had any mass appeal, relatively speaking. But it was a perfect introduction to linux.
Debain-based distros are the way to go for linux newbs, but i’m sure some tech savvy people might like an arch based distro instead. All in all, experimentation, especially when you’re young and not obligated to work or a wife and kids, is great for providing enough time to learn and grow in the linux world.
