This doesn’t mention the Mac’s approach to special characters, which is actually pretty doable in Pop_OS! if you set the keyboard as English (Macintosh) and set up Gnome Tweaks so that the Windows key is set as the third-level keys. (I generally move the Win key to the Caps Lock for my use case.)

Pop_OS! is a decent Linux OS for switchers, though I recently switched to Garuda Linux as my secondary Linux OS and am finding it a good balance.
