    I think your best bet for this is one of the spinoffs of enterprise Linux: fedora or openSUSE. both are very solid ootb, and have starting configurations that are generally good.

    The microos or silverblue variants respectively are really promising as well, but still have some caveats.

      Fedora is not an enterprise Linux spinoff, it is an upstream to an enterprise Linux distribution. Neither of those support proprietary video codecs and other potentially patent encumbered pieces out of the box, with some work for proprietary drivers too.

        Is that so? I can remember a option on install to download proprietary stuff. I think that means codecs?

        I am not saying that you are wrong just asking if you are sure.
