Linux ~~Mint~~ is also an option 😉

Totally agree, especially for those who know what they're into.

For those who doesn't, I recommend Mint!

Seconded. Everyone who is not recommending Mint to new users is doing them and the community a disservice imo.

Thanks, I'll be looking into it now. I really don't want Windows anymore, but Linux has always sounded overwhelming to me.

Linux mint is not bad. Fedora is another good option. The overwhelming part is honesty the amount if options. But I would just pick a distro and install it, and you'll have no issues with mint!
