- Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.

On the question: throw a dice and hope you don't piss off too many people :v
Start out with Linux Mint, it's a debian/ubuntu based distro which has massive support online and is less likely to break during an update, then when you get use to using linux you can make a more personal decision for which distro suits you best.
less likely to break during an update
In my experience, Ubuntu and Debian are by far the most likely to break during an upgrade

CentOS 3.6
Gentoo, if you have time you can mold it into whatever you need. And if you do it right its rock solid. And if you dont have a shit ton of time use debian, its reliable, fast, and has a ton of support articles.
Anything that's not Windows.
My favorite is NixOS, but for the love of GOD do NOT try to install and use it. It's like one of those puzzles you buy in a store, it makes you happy every time you solve it, but it pisses you off every time it breaks and you can't figure out how to fit it.
