TL;DR yes, popOS is perfect for that
My personal getting started advice is as follows
-
use kali Linux in a virtual machine because haha funny 1337 haxor
-
install mint/popOS/ubuntu on either a virtual machin, a spare laptop, or dual boot if you have a spare drive
-
I used mint for school and random tinkering and just gradually got more familiar with the random things I wanted to do or fix
-
this was last year so I’m no where near qualified to talk like a guru of ancient wisdom, take all of this with a grain of salt or possibly just burn it
Pineboi is now the only acceptable naming convention
