Heya Transhour ol' buddy! Since you're trying out Live Distros maybe check this out. The link is for a number of Live versions with differing WM/DEs but there is also and elsewhere (but by the same AlienaBob) a dedicated DAW live system that is really great if you do any Audio-Video deep work. All of these on the below linked page are ~Current which is stage 2 beta now for the somewhat imminent v15.
These are not "first one's free" "stick a toe in" live distros. These are extremely full-featured as well as featuring persistence. They all employ v5x kernels and all you need to login first time is Username: Live Password: Live. I think you just might be quite surprised. I'm almost certain you will also be impressed. They are really excellent. Anyway for some educational serious fun try one or more of these

Plasma 5.21 or Gnome-based? No prob!
Best wishes for you and your twin Sis

Pretty cool... both literally and figuratively I'm not a Mac hater like so many seem to be but I can't get past all the proprietary crap especially when it's viewed as vulgar to "look under the hood". I have a cousin who writes for several Mac magazines, does hardware reviews and the like, and when he showed me his rig the first thing I did was open a terminal. He exclaimed" What is THAT?!? I thought I'd seen every app on this box."
Incidentally my roommate is a MacBook user and was experiencing awful slowdowns and asked me for help. After futzing around a bit I asked her if it was OK to boot up Slackware Live Linux from a flashdrive. It ran great and REALLY fast as well and greatly aided repairing the stock OpSys. I don't know for certain if all the Live versions have kernels with the Apple File System driver enabled but this version did.
Anyway, best wishes mate.

I am excited about Wayland but Ima wait a year or three before I dump X11. Since I boot to Runlevel 3 which, in Slackware is Multi-User Command Line and then launch SDDM ( a display manager, login chooser) I can pock between at least 9 WM/DEs including 2 versions of Wayland. So I will keep checking it out, maybe contribute some bug reports, but my daily driver will be X11 I'm predicting for at least a year.
Good luck, mouacyk !
