Edit TLDR : distro choosers are too complex for beginners, this is a suggestion for improvement.

Hi everyone!

Recently, I’ve had to "correct" people (excuse the way I phrase this) recommending Arch Linux to users complaining about Windows, which is something I didn't care about before. It’s crazy how the Linux community can sometimes scare beginners away from open-source software.

To fix this, I built a quick, simple website to help absolute beginners choose their first distribution. (Note: I work in biomedicine, not IT, so please excuse the basic setup!)

Why make another distro chooser?

Existing tools like Distrochooser are often:

• Too complex for beginners
• Confusing with their answers
• Overwhelming by giving too many results at the end

As a "noob," too much choice is paralyzing. Beginners need a solid, easy anchor to start their Linux journey. They can distro-hop later if they wish.
Distrochooser is suitable for a distrohopper than knows a bit about Linux in general, but not to an absolute beginner.

Feedback appreciated!

Because it needs to stay simple, the quiz is intentionally limited. However, to make it better i would love your feedback on how to optimize it.

It was built using Tally, meaning every extra option exponentially increases the manual mapping I have to do so please be gentle in your ways to correct this stuff.
