What made you want to make the switch? I’m currently on Mint
I'm still in the fase of exploration. When using Windows, you just have 1 choice. I just want to discover what suits me best. So nothing against Linux Mint. It's great, but maybe OpenSuse is better for me? I don't know.
just in case you dont know, Distrosea lets you try various distros online which is handy just for getting a quick idea what the UI is like
for trying out different distros using the live USB method, Ventoy is a good option since it lets you have multiple ISO files on your USB drive at once, instead of having to reformat your USB each time
