Actually Good Distro Recomendations for Beginners
reggie.re

I grew tired of shitty “Top 10 Linux distros in ${CURRENT_YEAR}” articles so I wrote a blogpost, that I would personally consider helpful when I was starting out, so I can simply link it to people when they ask my opinion on a beginner distro.

Objective criticism is welcome and encouraged.

    Afaik no distros ship those codecs by default now, they might prompt you to download them during the installation. Fedora was just the first to notice that “oopsie we are violating a license” and others followed soon after.

      Ah, that’s interesting. I haven’t had that problem yet on other distros but now I’ll keep my eye out for it. Pretty annoying if that’s case tho :/
