My advice now is PopOS.
There's a lot.... go through some to know what you like. 20 years using Linux in the desktop and many, maaaany distros after, I circle around Elementary OS or PopOS. Elementary is easy enough that even my mom used without problems, but Pop comes with GREAT laptop support and flathub out of the box for a great app ecosystem.
