Ubuntu is definitely the most user friendly

Linux Mint is designed for people switching from Windows/Mac. Try it

+1 for Linux mint. I was going to mention it as well. Honestly I prefer chromeOS

I love ChromeOS as well. It has limitations but is great at what it does.

If you're happy with Ubuntu, I'd just stick with it.

Try ElementaryOS or Pop!_OS
