Why are you talking like gnome is the default Linux DE? Its not. As you said yourself cinnamon is better for some folks.
It's not, but what distros frequently top the list of "user-friendly" distros?
Ubuntu, PopOS, Fedora, and friends.
Maybe it's not how it should be, but that's currently how it is.
I never heard of PopOS, and fedora is definitely not meant to be user friendly. I'd have mentioned first Mint (which ships with cinnamon I believe) actually
I would encourage you to look up "user-friendly Linux distros" on your favourite search engine and check the first few results.
PopOS is System76's distro. It's quite popular among beginners and frequently recommended to those just starting with Linux. I don't personally use it.
Will do, it's been a while since I've been a beginner I suppose. Nonetheless, few years ago mint would have been the goto recommendation, at least in my circle. I think I even got my mom to try a live version out of curiosity
