    Fedora, use a spin with KDE if you don't like Gnome.

If you're coming from Windows, I'd recommend Ubuntu MATE. It's configurable, but the default interface should be very familiar for Windows users

Ubuntu MATE is an awesome distro even if you're not a beginner.

Absolutely, undoubtedly the answer is Mint. Every time without fail, on more systems than I can count, the only reliable, stable, just-works distro that has always worked with zero issues is Mint.

Kubuntu or Debian KDE is probably the answer, especially if you are a former Windows 7 enthusiast and semi-normie

Only downside I've come across so far is systemd

The one which has the most support available.
-> Ubuntu.
Doesn't matter if something else has some better UI or some feature, if you can't fix problems as a newbie you're fucked.
