Imo, the fact you know what crontab is indicates your a bit more than a 'basic' user. You can give yourself more credit than that ;).

Anyway, like the other commenter said, depends where your switching from but Zorin is pretty much making Linux as easy to use as possible. They even have a wrapper for bottles that makes installing windows apps with wine easier. I quite like it and would be what I'd suggest to someone who wants a general purpose computer. It's not great for gaming though as they don't use super up-to-date packages so performance is lacking. That being said, it looks great and makes things as easy as possible for noobies

Make it easily repairable like the Fairphone and then I'll be interested

Just the way I like them. Real ones laugh at my acorn shaped penis and chafe my thighs
