I have only used mint,pop,and nobara on my pc,I tried vanilla but didnt like it, Is there any good ubuntu based distro thats easy to use? I can use the terminal fine,I also want gnome 44

Its free and can be used on android,also proton vpn is too slow for me,this one is much faster

I know that paid privacy services are best,But since I dont wanna spent any money on a right that should have already been free in the first place,What are your recommendation for free services?(vpn,mail,etc....)

Is there any way I can remove the spyware samsung and google used to spy on me without installing degogled android? I used the samsung galaxy a13
