Strange, I’ve literally never had to do that and don’t have any issues with “jumping through hoops.”
Linux isn’t bad, but outside of Nobara Linux I’ve gotten more roadblocks installing it than any Windows upgrade or fresh install. It just really makes me wonder if you guys are operating on two decade old Windows expectations and pretending that’s still standard, or you’re just being obtuse about how “difficult” it is. It’s pretty damn simple. I’ve literally walked people who have no idea what computers are through an install by phone, that’s a pretty good test of how idiot proof you’ve made your process.
Ironic, I actually tried Mint Cinnamon and had issues lol I checked the hash and downloaded it from the MIT mirror so I don’t think it was an integrity problem.
Maybe Rufus failed me? Who knows. I use that for all of my other installs including Windows 10/11, Nobara and Kali and never had an issue.

Than you haven’t tried installing Linux Mint. There’s nothing easier.
