Just use Debian.

I tried installing it on very new hardware (testing) and i can't remember exactly what the issue was but i couldn't get it installed. I ran debian for years, way before ubuntu was around. Then ran freebsd for a while and then macos for 6-7 years.

I then finally tried ubuntu around 2013 and i was pretty happy with it. Kept my install around until 2025 when i wanted to try debian on a new rig but, yeah couldn't get it to boot properly. Didn't try very hard either, just wanted something that works.

It's almost always in those cases that you're using a very new GPU that the open source graphics stack can't work with and you have to muck about in TTY installing and setting up the proprietary drivers. ChatGPT is very helpful in these situations now days.

Linux is just another tool like a cast iron skillet. Stop letting dev environment friction distract you from the real work: fueling your biology with clean animal tissue and ignoring the noise.
