Questions I have about Linux, from someone who wants to switch from Windows 10
Ones I can recommend for a beginner are Fedora, Linux Mint and Ubuntu.

Beginner to Linux
The distro I always reccomend for beginners is linux mint with the cinnamon DE (no it does not matter what that is). This is the most user friendly windows like experience you can get except the store is the thing you'd actually want to use unlike windows where you have to get some shady msi apps.

Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone
I've been very happy happy with https://github.com/Open-Shell/Open-Shell-Menu as a Start Menu replacement. If ads have rolled out to my Windows install, I wouldn't even notice.

Windows XP 2024 Edition is everything I want from a new OS
Whenever I set up a new computer for older family members, despite it being windows 11, I always install open shell[1] and retro bar[2]. Between the two, I've made the operating system look very close to Windows XP visually, and they always appreciate it.

There is also Open Shell, a free and open source tool which performs a similar function.

Ask HN: How do you “clean” Windows from all bloatware?
I use Open Shell (fork of Classic Shell) as a replacement to original Start Menu. This gives me full control over what appears in start menu - no results from internet, animated tiles, etc (I am on Win 10 though, from what I read the Win 11 is supported, but not yet officially [1]). It could be a solution to the ads appearing in start menu.

I missed the old windows so i tried to recreate it
Looks like you're going for an XP theme. May I suggest using open-shell to skin the taskbar, start menu, and start button if you wanna take that extra step? You can also find the taskbar skin and start button here. Also, I would remove the search bar, task view button, and news & interest area of the taskbar just to bring things together. This is all just a suggestion, you don't have to if you don't want to.
