Serious question , my laptop is getting old. 7-8, years now I don't want to put money in tech for w new one. I want to use it with Linux , as I just use for very Norma stuff and Zero gaming. My use cases will be use of office, use if browsers, simple image editors, pdf reader and manipulation, copying images from to and from HDD , copying media to HDD etc. Connecting iPhone, android for file uploading download etc.

I don't want hassle of

  1. Find a reaposiroty, install an extra ackages except for softwares
  2. Give any command viq terminal. 3.find any dependency for ANYTHING
  3. Use it as regular person

What Linux will just work? I mean simple install and start using.

Pop!_OS or Zorin features all of those criteria. Mint, a little less. I'd go with Zorin. Everything works out of the box.
