For anyone dipping their toes into Linux for the first time Ubuntu is by far and large the best place for them to start.

This was true maybe 10 years ago but not any more.

For example, the default gnome desktop is terrible. You have to install gnome tweaks to adjust anything. It requires some Chrome plugin... It's an impossible chore for a n00b to increase the font size. Likewise with other simple adjustments.
