I'm going to go ahead and say get an Ender 3. "Easy" 3D printing is nice and all, but if that's what you want, you can go order parts from a print farm.
An Ender 3 is really going to allow you to get your hands dirty. It's highly upgradable and extensible, and AFAIK it's also open-source now. There are anvariety of ready-mades community-made upgrades and modifications that you can print and apply, and some that you need physical parts for - but hey, that's half the fun!
Later on, you can swap to a more advanced and stable printer like a Prusa, but the education and experience that a simpler printer like this is going to provide is simply invaluable. Plus, it's also on the cheaper end, which is perfect for a starter printer.
(I'm talking about the Ender 3/3 Pro here, not the late upgrades like the V2 or V3, which are more restricted and come with a lot of features on their own, which really limits how much you can learn on your own)

It's not out of a question that there was a translator as an intermediary.
I do have NixOS on my laptop. But that's besides the point. My point is that Fedora ships a "stock" experience, whereas these gaming-focused distros ship their own stuff on top, some of which is bothersome and bloatware.
Why does Nobara ship its own updater? GNOME Software has one built in. Why does it ship a 3rd party icon pack, that just feels completely out of place? If it stuck to just kernel patches and whatnot, it would be a fantastic distribution. But no - it has to come with a patched Nautilus that breaks search, 9 different apps that do not at all integrate with the desktop, a custom icon pack, and a shitload of problems.
And don't even get me started on bazzite. It took me half an hour just to undo all the dconf "tweaks" they do to GNOME - and that's just the surface.
A lot of these gaming distros feel less like distros targeted towards general users, and more towards the creators' personal taste.
I also would not recommend "trying atomic desktop first". The fact is, as a newbie, you're going to run into issues and problems and need to look things up, which means running commands. And a majority of guides are either for Debian/Ubuntu or Fedora/CentOS/Red Hat, and the normal Fedora commands just don't work on Atomic Desktops. If you want to install anything other than a sandboxed GUI app, you're going to have to deal with rpm-ostree, which is a major hit-or-miss. Setting up Tailscale was a major chore, and I ended up having to set up a Docker (Podman) container for it.
My problem with these sorts of atomic desktops is that they remove the traditional packaging solutions, which, let's be honest, is justified. But the solutions they are replaced with are either incomplete (Flatpak) or nonexistent (how do I set up system daemons? CLI apps?).
TL;DR Atomic Desktops are more " hassle" than "stable", just use Fedora Workstation.
Bazzite does far too much. Out of the box, it "tweaks" GNOME in like 5000 different ways that are each their own unique pain in the ass to disable, and includes far too much bloatware for my taste, and includes like 30 different daemons that are nearly useless.
For my gaming rig, I ended up trying Nobara instead, which has its own set of problems (custom icon pack, some bloatware) but they're relatively easy to fix (change icon pack back, put all the custom Nobara apps in one folder).
In the end I just went with regular, stock Fedora. No issues so far. I don't really see the need for these gaming-focused distributions.

Pigs are loving, compassionate, affectionate and smart animals. Class traitors don't have any of these traits. I've just been calling them blue thugs.
it's actually pretty easy: if you have an old computer or so lying around, you can throw Yunohost on it. They have excellent documentation, which guides you through some of the concepts you need to know for self-hosting, through nitty-gritty of setting up your own Yunohost box, including set up and port-forwarding on your router and they also provide a users guide for you and anyone else who might use your personal cloud. They even give you free subdomains!
as a Georgian, it won't even matter, their little color revolution has already begun
as a communist, I am very excited for the future of GNOME. let the gosplanning begin. >;)
i know a comrade from a very bourgeois background, she's straight up said multiple times that she would aid in the execution of her own family during revolution. based?
lots of social reactionaries in the comments of that video, sad to see :(
Kubuntu was too fiddly and overwhelming for new user me. I'd recommend Fedora - it ships the "stock" Linux experience, although it can be unfamiliar in some spots. But hey, we're not building a Windows replica here.
