Heck ya to Fedora, glad to see it recommended for a first time user. It’s not much more difficult than Mint, but you can also get into the weeds instead of having to find a new distro after Mint. Mint basically has permanent training wheels, while with Fedora you can pop em off whenever it’s convient.
Edit: Fedora is also a more up to date Alpine and it’s not directly controlled by Red Hat.
Fedora is also Wayland only, which I wouldn’t recommend to a newbie with an old laptop.
The KDE spin has x11, KDE is my go to DE everytime. So assumed that layer I guess.
