Noooooob here: As title said - I don't know what distro I should choose. My needs are student stuff like Libreoffice & Videoconferences but also creative things, photo-management and cutting videos. Does it matter at all? Do I have to check for every single program I use or is there a distro that is recommended?
I was planning on getting a Tuxedo with Tuxedo OS, but my neighbour recommended another "no os"-seller and now I'm not sure. I was opting for Tuxedo mainly because of the support since I'm leaving windows after many years^^
(Picture shows the lilac and blueish ports that we had for mouse and keyboard back "in my days" with the words "How old are you" - "Me:" on top - just because this community semmingly requires a picture added)
Ah, you've made your first mistake. You asked the Linux community a question. Welcome, it kinda sucks here.
Anyway, you had the right idea. Everybody has different answers to the distro question because it has less to do with the distro and more luck of the draw that some combination of distro-specific customizations and personal choices picks up your hardware without much issue first try.
The real way to guarantee that outcome (as much as possible in the Linux ecosystem) is to buy hardware that is specifically tied to a specific distro. Tuxedo is a way to get there. Once it's all up and running that choice will be mostly irrelevant. Your choice of package management and desktop environment may have a bigger impact instead. Just go with a solution that comes preinstalled or you can verify will work out of the box.
The software part is probably fine in most entry point distros that aren't too uppity about FOSS-only and don't make you go through hoops for third party repositories. I haven't owned a Tux, but I presume that includes them, considering their positioning. If it's being recommended for novices or it comes preinstalled it's a fair chance it's all gonna be in there without having to spend too long in search engines.
