  • I’d suggest Mint. It’s Ubuntu minus Ubuntu-specific annoyances, so it’s right in your zone of familiarity. Friendly enough so my tech-illiterate mum uses it, unobtrusive enough so I’ve been using it without issues.

    Arch would give you more control, and you’ve been getting into it, it’s also a good option.

    As much as I hate doing it, I’d recommend using the proprietary NVidia drivers. I also have a NVidia GPU; the difference in performance between the proprietary drivers vs. Nouveau is noticeable for me. Worst hypothesis though it’s fine to test and see which works better for your machine.
