As for not using the command line, you can get away with it for the most part but you’re eventually going to have to use it for something. Your distro, whatever you pick, will have an app called “shop” or “discover” or something similar that will let you download other apps and updates (yes you will generally want to keep your system up-to-date). It’s also likely that you’ll be able to download and use Proton this way. Since Mint and Pop (and Ubuntu lol) are Ubuntu based, any app that works on Ubuntu (like Proton) will also with with them.

Keyboard shortcuts are also configurable and most of the time will be the same as windows

If you pick a distro with a gui installer (all of your distro candidates do) then installation is basically completely unfuckupable.

I just end mine with “&& exit”
This is dumb lol but
update = “sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade”
Exchange apt for whatever package manager you use, optionally add “&& flatpak upgrade”. If you really want to live on the edge throw a -y in there as well
