don't fall for the ruse. You want cinnamon. Trust me, that's what all ex-windows users end up finding most comfortable.

It's also at least remotely stable, unlike unity

More like you said ubuntu 3 times and ubuntu looks like shit on flavour

Xubuntu with numix theme.

Mate is better though.

by posting this image now i'm tempted to think you're just baiting but i'll try to help you regardless:

>Which distro
Ubuntu and derivatives are well crafted for begineers, try always with the latest LTS but the previous LTS at this moment should already be very solid too.
>Which way to "fix fonts" (lmao you still have to do this)
For me the fonts looks fine but if there's something you don't like you can try to tweak it:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/font_configuration
You can try to install install the infinallity patches but i don't know if there's already packaged for the 16.04.
>Which DE/WM
You can customize very well most DEs, maybe the only one that limits you on purpose is unity and you can still install unity tweak tool from the repos to change a good number of things.
Try with cinnamon, mate or xfce. Try with the arc theme and the numix circle icons, the noto or the droid sans are good fonts for UI.
>Which sound API
I'm not sure what are you referring to but pulseaudio works ootb for me and it generally comes installed. If you work with DAW you may want to use something like jack. Good DAWs are bitwig, renoise and maybe LLMS.
>>
Arch for new packages, try out several DEs and WMs.

Don't fall for this infinality meme, it's literally hell

>>55098721

>Fedora 23 Cinnamon spin
>Grab fedy and check the boxes you want
>Cinnamon
>Pulseaudio what the fuck else

I turn on the updates-testing repo (google fedora updates-testing repo)

its this or get ubuntu
