Linux mint I guess. As from my experience, it have almost everything needed by a regular user:
Great application center with flatpak and Flathub enabled out of the box, which already covers almost every application needed by a regular user
Graphical driver installer
Ability to install apt packages without terminal
Good pack of preinstalled applications - it’s already possible to do almost everything regular user needs, like browsing the web, working with office documents, reading PDF files and so on
Driverless printer support out of the box
Also it looks awesome out of the box (especially after recent redesign), and works fine even on not so capable hardware
The only thing I don’t really like about it is it being based on LTS release of ubuntu, which may lead to some problems on newer hardware. Still can be fixed by installing mainline kernel and adding ppa repositories, but it’s not really easy to do without using terminal
This is really important to know going into any new tech platform. You will need to search things up, this is true even on something like iOS where they spend billions of dollars on making everything as intuitive as possible.

What’s the best “I don’t want to learn anything” distro?

Probably POP_OS to my understanding, I haven’t used it much myself but I hear good things in terms of a “Just works” distro.
I’ll give a +1 for Mint and Pop_OS!, especially Mint (Cinnamon edition) for people who don’t want to learn a new layout either.
