Thank you for the advice. I plan to install Linux on my primary PC, which is quite modern and allows for future upgrades. What do you think about Linux Mint and Fedora Linux?

Mint is fine. It's another Debian-based distro with good community support. If you want the GNOME desktop, you can install it.
I wouldn't recommend Fedora for a newbie, or really anyone else, unless there's a specific reason you want to try it.
It seems like you have a good understanding of Linux distributions and experience with them. Do you by any chance write about these topics?
I haven't written much about Linux in a long while. I'm no expert, just someone who has dabbled for a long time. I basically started with what I suggested for you: I bought a cheap used PC and learned on something I didn't mind breaking until I was comfortable.
It's a shame. I find it strange that no one in the Hive ecosystem writes about Linux. The essence and spirit of Linux seem to align with the spirit of Hive, as far as I understand.
It's not shameful, it's just unfortunate (translation nuances).
Free (libre, not just gratis, for more nuance) is the key. There is overlap between free and open-source software (FOSS) communities and crypto. Own your keys, own your crypto. Own your software, own your computer.
