From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Nobara is Fedora based afaik. I guess you didn't like the Desktop Environment (the look and feel, user interface), not the OS in it's functionality, since all of the distro based work basically the same under the hood.

So: I suggest you to try different DEs, not different OSs. You could try Gnome, KDE, XFCE, i3, there are a lot.

If you still want to stick with distro hopping, then i suggest you these good-looking distros, Ubuntu based:

ZorinOS: looks and feels very similar to windowz

DeepinOS: Very good looking DE

ElementaryOS: kinda looks like MacOS, lacks some software from its store tho

Bonus - Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE)
