DO NOT USE LINUXFX (or any affiliated distro like wubuntu)
 
they are known for stealing code and assets, logging users, having extremely poor security practices, and breaking software licenses. not only that, but they have the balls to sell a "professional" license key
 
"familiar", it is not. linuxfx is just a freely available windows-like theme on top of kde plasma (a common desktop environment) with some janky windows-like software included
 
if you want something genuinely windows-like, look at any distro that comes with kde plasma or cinnamon, namely, ultramarine linux or linux mint, which are both rock solid and use the typical windows-like taskbar paradigm
 
i'm honestly disappointed about this being at the start of the video, before even the intro plays, or even being included in the video in the first place. it's even more irresponsible than when ltt recommended atlasos. i expected more research and responsible reporting, especially after the controversy in august

we all love emily!!

a linux distro being "more like windows" is never a good thing. if you're going linux, embrace linux, don't try to dress it up and put makeup on it to pretend you're still using windows

we all love emily!!

you're not really looking for a distro that's touch optimised, you're more looking for a desktop environment which is touch optimised. in your case, it would probably be gnome. ubuntu ships with gnome, but i would not recommend that you use ubuntu as the snap ecosystem of software is still extremely poor. fedora ships with gnome and is very user friendly and leaves gnome mostly stock. it's also recommended by the gnome project itself

I've been out of the game for a while, but following the recent further fragmentation of ISO streaming services I'm looking download some high quality Linux ISOs and wondering what the current suggested safe(ish) method is. 

I had a search of the forum and couldn't find any guides or suggestions for getting Linux ISOs. Does anyone have any pointers for a direction to head in?

10.6, 10.9 and 10.11.
10.6 because of nostalgia, 10.9 because i just simply love the user interface, 10.12 because of its reliability and software support.

windows defender and common sense.
do not install a 3rd party antivirus. they slow your pc down and often mark innocent files as viruses.
don't be scared of the internet, viruses are hard to come by nowadays.

every app on the aur is maintained by a person. the install scripts are public and can be read, so 99% of the time they're safe. i would not recommend using snaps or flatpaks as they usually function different from native linux binaries and have security flaws. 
spotify is available from the aur, which you can access by enabling aur support in pamac's settings if you haven't already.

entirely personal preference. 

opera is known for some shady things. i personally think the whole gaming browser thing is quite cringeworthy, but to each their own. i use safari.

windows defender. it's built into windows 10. common sense also helps. viruses are a lot less prevalent than they used to be, you don't need to worry. installing 3rd party antiviruses just slows down your computer.
i consider antiviruses malware because their malicious intent is to fearmonger you into buying their overpriced product.

i like this.

for most lightweight, mumble. 

in a lot of cases, linux kicks windows' ass in terms of gaming.
by the way, i'm not sure why you guys are recommending ubuntu in 2020, manjaro has long since passed it in terms of user friendliness and powerfulness.
