From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yeah, the ease of use really looks promising, otherwise I never would have thought about that.
I have zero coding experience, but it seems to be doable even for a noob like me!

In that case, this is the one you want: https://github.com/ublue-os/startingpoint

The instructions are here: https://universal-blue.org/tinker/make-your-own/

You need a GitHub account first. Use the web installer they link to under the setup section. Don’t forget to enable the actions in your repository because they aren’t enabled by default. Everything else is in the instructions. No coding required.
