Try the Ubuntu or Mint LINUX/GNU distro. Mint is more user friendly to learn.
Use synaptic GUI to install software at first for Debian based LINUX/GNU.
I like Debian based LINUX as it has the broadest desktop use so it is generally easier to find online help and tutorials.
As you advance your LINUX knowledge you will like apt-get in CLI on your terminal to install software packages. You will find what you need using the LINUX community on the Internet.
With LINUX you are in command of your system's configuration. As you become more experienced designing your system the way you like it; you just configure your system updates to your expectations and not what MicroCrap offers you on a take it or leave it basis.
