Breadtube if it didn't suck.
Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.
Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.
There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.
A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

It really depends on your hardware, on the specific Linux distribution you choose, and what kind of programs you plan to use. I think at this point, if you have decently-supported hardware and you just need typical programs like a browser, image editor, office programs, then any beginner-friendly distro can do this without much fuss or opening conf files.
I'd also suggest working past the fear of editing a configuration file. It won't hurt you, especially if you just wiped your machine to try out Linux. Just back up the old version, try a change, and reverse it if it doesn't work. But many distros like Fedora, Mint, Ubuntu etc are possible to use without needing advanced technical knowledge.
Fear? I used to be a UNIX system administrator. real UNIX, not that children's toy lee-nucks. Our systems were the size of refrigerators and came in pairs for redundancy. I never want to see another command line as long as I live.
Ha, then I misread your first comment thinking you were writing from the perspective of a beginner, sorry for that. I stand by that it might be possible at this point to install and operate some Linux distros fully with a GUI, but I may have just forgotten some terminal steps that were necessary along the way.
