I wanna try out Linux for the first time with no clue what I’m doing and this seemed like a good starter for what I need it for what do you all think?

The biggest tip I can give to you is to stop considering all kinds of things when you have no actual experience using Linux and don't really know what do you want. Just try it. Go ahead and launch Zorin OS from a Live USB and see for yourself if it is any good, doing this as soon as possible will save you a lot of time askin questions on forums, watching videos and reading articles

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.
