Archlinux is a great distro, but has a learning curve. It considers itself a Linux distribution for "Moderate/Advanced Linux users", and you can just see that by its installation process: Straight up drops you into a DOS-like command prompt and expects you to know what todo. While they include automatic install scripts now, Arch is still a distro that requires time-to-time manual maintenance, so someone who can't follow basic wiki.archlinux.org copy-and-paste steps shouldn't really by trying Arch. Not that I'm scaring you away, if you have the freetime and Virtual machine skills, by all means, start with Arch. If you can get a desktop enviroment installed you definitely have a promising future as a Linux sysadmin.

Ubuntu: The big one, but I wouldn't recommend it anymore. Canonical stopped caring about their Desktop OS circa 2016 and the UI/UX on their desktop environment is so shit event Android Lollipop manages to be better. They now focus on enterprise, but the base OS is still very good, and you'll see a trend of "Ubuntu-based" distros. They all share the same stuff under the hood and anything Ubuntu related apply to them. Their site.

Arch: The holy one. It is its own thing, meant to by highly customazible and configurable. By default ships with nothing, and you'll get a bash shell, where you have to install everything you want and need manually. It's a rolling release distro that, different from the other I cited, instead of having a "1.0", "2.0", "3.0" release, it's always upgrading incrementally with the very latest software. Their site, I recommend dropping by their wiki even if you're not using Arch, it is a very good resource regardless of your distro.
