I was hoping someone could give a recommendation for a noob friendly distro that works well on my laptop, an HP Envy x360 Convertible 15m-es0xxx, i7 16 GB RAM. Thanks for your help and I apologize if these questions aren’t allowed here

    i found it difficult to get a working guide for nvidia drivers

    I am saddened to hear that. Did you try the guide found on RPM Fusion?

    As another user said, opting for a derivative with built-in Nvidia drivers might be another option worth considering.

      rpm fusion guide was a tad confusing for me and my rtx 30 series wasn’t listed so i didn’t know what to install. i did find a good guide after some trial and error and a full reinstall.

      i have used nobara in the past, and i quite liked it and would have kept it but it had (and still has) this weird issue when i suspend my pc and/or turn off the monitor (oled tv), it won’t get signal anymore until i reboot.

      anyway for now i ended up going back to mint for the 6th time and everything works so maybe i just stick with it 😂
