It disgusts me that you want newbies to use an infested distro that doesn't respect their privacy like Ubuntu, with their horribly out-of-date official repos filled with software patched until it's nearly falling apart, with bugs specific only to its own family, and nearly no contribution or relation with upstream. Not a single Ubuntu install has worked fine for me over 3~ years, while pretty much every other distro does work. At the point where you're willing to call that a newbie-friendly experience, you might as-well recommend them Gentoo, as even that gave me less trouble than Ubuntu usually does, and that's not even bringing up Ubuntu's relation with Amazon and how utterly horrible and in-experienced with Linux their forums are. I have installed Debian, and guess what, it's not hard at all, I've begun contemplating that "installing debian is harder than shitbuntu" is a myth, since Debian's installation is literally spamming "next" and choosing your own DE and username/password. Please stop recommending Linux that doesn't respect the user. --Topcuck1337 at blahblah date, I can't even into wiki editing.

I understand that Ubuntu (Unity) with Amazon is bullshit. That's why the OP didn't include Unity into the list of recommended distros.

If you're going to change the format, TALK about it here first and try to reach a consensus.
  
If I were to recommend distros that respects your privacy and freedom, I'd recommend the [http://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.en.html FSF-endorsed distros] instead.

Script

I've more or less lost all motivation on that script, so if anyone wants to take it, or maybe just remove it, that'd be fine. --Se7en (talk) 18:42, 9 February 2016 (EST)

IRC
