I used Ubuntu for almost 2 decades and just switched to Debian this year because of the snap shenanigans. I honestly couldn't tell any real difference other than the feeling that I now control my OS versus the other way around. So my recommendation would be Debian, the default DE is gnome.

Thank you! I previously read that Debian was difficult for beginners, but often favored by seasoned Linux users. What makes Debian a good choice for accessibility?
Debian used to be more difficult so I hear, it's the same now. I don't know anything about the accessibility options but you can test drive it on a USB drive and search the Synaptic package manager for related software to your needs.
well, debian isn't the best if comes to getting, even a new browser, you are stuck on ESR firefox.
