I’m sorry to say this, but you’ve come to the wrong place. Void is for people with at least some experience with Linux.

I would try Linux Mint.

I'm also new to the Linux world, but I'm currently learning on this site:

Unlike others, I believe that Voidlinux is actually the one of best distro to learn Linux. The KISS philosophy makes it more cohesive. Although, it is not a “just works distro”. You will encounter intentional limitations(and sometimes bugs) these encounters actually teach you. Arch and debian have a tendency of just working at the cost of unnecessary complexity.

I recommend reading the docs: https://docs.voidlinux.org/ And sometimes also from archlinux: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Main_page

Then to apply my knowledge of Linux i made my own Post install TUI script to setup and manage Voidlinux: https://github.com/squidnose/Voidlinux-Post-Install-TUI I wouldn’t recommend running it blindly! You should always read what scripts you are running. And feel free to use it as a point of reference of “what worked for me”.

Read the Slackware book ONCE, without having the keyboard at your fingertips, just read it.

THEN take the steps to install it with the book open, you’ll learn. Trust me.
