Try pop!_os. Really easy to install and use. It’s my daily driver on a carbon X1 and I’m not a developer or anything.

Tossing out a second +1 for pop!
I've not used it in about a year now and I do miss it. They were adding support for a tiling WM mode and it wasn't bad (needed some work).
I was using it on System76 hardware and had zero issues with the OS and S76 replaced my keyboard when it went bad.

pop! is indeed really nice, with the possible exception that for some reasons I have to manually recompile the nvidia drivers (and sometimes wifi drivers) with some arcane `dkms` commands every time the OS updates include a kernel update. After the second time this happened I just pasted all the commands in a text file for later reference but it sure is annoying. Apparently not everyone has this problem though, so maybe my computer is just weird.
