And of course I’m installing Linux on it. Install went well, even the fingerprint sensor built in to the laptop works.
Mostly this will be a school and DND machine but always nice to have a functional laptop for whatever else I may need it for.

Fair cop, use what you like, it’s not a religion.
I wouldn’t go with ‘ease of use’ personally, it’s more can’t break the main OS. I tend to do dev work in distroboxes, different workflow, but you never end up rebooting to a broken system and you can install wild dependencies without guilt. Works for me. YMMV.
I love the discourse here, it’s so nice to see. Not only because I, too, am a Mint user for practical purposes (MATE flavour, even, in spite of running on pretty modern hardware).
By the way, I am obligated to commend you on your username, cap’n. It’s not much, but it’s enough, right?
