Are you looking for something witha GUI installer? If so, Ubuntu mate should be good.  Also, I am using fedora mate spin and is very accessinble.  There is also accessible accocanut which is based on ubuntu 20.jd.  Also if you want a text installer, slint is a very good choice.   also debian is also good.  So, as you can see there are a few good choices avalible.

Hello,


I am a totally blind person and a LONG time Windows/Jaws/NVDA user. I am wondering what would be a recommendation for the best distro/GUI environment to begin using?  I would love to be able to move away from Windows and use Linux full time for browsing, email, word processing and spreadsheets. I have a Thinkpad X220 that I can use for Linux. About 15 years ago, I played around with Venux, but that project seems to be dormant now. I have a Pi 3B+ running some ham radio software and I have to SSH into it occasionally and perform some command line stuff. For daily usage, I want a full GUI environment.


Thanks in advance for any suggestions.


John
