I've installed Linux on at least 20 laptops & desktops in the past decade, many for first-time users. I generally go with Mint or ElementaryOS for newbies. I can't remember ever having a compatibility issue. I'm sure they still happen sometimes, but when people talk about it they act like it's still 2005.
