Bazzite is good for noobs looking for a gaming option because it's "immutable" which means the OS filesystem can't be edited, which makes it nearly impossible to break.

Mint is still very noob friendly, just not immutable. Both are solid options because neither one requires any command line to get it on-par with Windows.

I am trying out Kinoite now but it's very similar. I think the immutable distros are best for people who want a "Just works" experience to start with.

Every. Single. Time.

It's purely marketing and I wish it would stop getting repeated. BlueSky is centralized and a for-profit company.

With Linux being better for gaming and Mac still the place for creative software, Windows really is only for business users.

This is a good point, I actually made that mistake once! It required their app to setup.

Amcrest seems to be the cheapest and I have good experience with them and Frigate

Tried and couldn't! Was hoping someone here could highlight something I missed but seems no.

Eh, not really. I don't use google and I block trackers anyway.
