Huge community, stuff just works, regular updates and a bright future because they want to get into the smartphone market now.
Down-vote because you could have done research for yourself and no one here can tell you what YOU like. Just try several OS for yourself and then device what YOU like and not what we tell you is better. Please do not abuse this community for matter of taste questions like this.
lol, ignore this guy. the best part of linux is that if you don’t like something, you can just switch. in the community a lot of people do this thing called distrohopping where they move from one distribution (e.g. Zorin) to another (e.g. Linux Mint) to try different things out. i personally suggest trying out Mint first, and if you don’t like it or are feeling like trying something new out move to another distro that looks interesting to you. as long as you have an installer and an ubuntu base, most questions/issues you’ll have are a quick google search away.
if you’re really into the Zorin aesthetic, Mint comes with a cinnamon flavor (a flavor is an official image of the same distribution with some differences from the other flavors. in most cases, this means the official Linux Mint team will create different installations for different Desktop Environments (i.e. Gnome, KDE Plasma, etc). cinnamon is lightweight and very, very easy to use. it’s much more customizable than Gnome, not so much as KDE Plasma, so it offers a good balance between the two. imo, it’s a great DE to pick up in the beginning. there’s a lot of guides on how to customize it to your liking, so you can look those up to help. along the way, you’ll explore the settings of your DE and become more familiar with your computer. this is basically the entire point of ricing (imo).
though it might not seem like it at first, the vast majority of linux community is willing to go a long way to help you out. after all, there’s no real customer service here: we just rely on each other.
There is no such things as - easiest - because this is highly subjective. The factor for how easy something is for you is based on your own knowledge, experience and will to learn and acknowledged new things.
If you are newcomer or Windows switcher you might wanna use other Distros who are similar like Windows, in that case LinuxFX maybe, it is based on Ubuntu and designed to be a clone of Windows from the GUI.
There are so many factors, it really depends. Do not make your decision up based on what nonsense on the internet is spread or what we suggest you, make it up how comfortable you are with the distro.
People can down-vote this all day, but the best and easiest is what YOU are most comfortable with. There are bunch of other good and solid distros, it really depends on what you like and not what people will tell you here.
Install a vm try it our for yourself, it is the best advice you can get and the only one that makes sense.
Manjaro.

Thanks for recommendation, I was just asking what is the easiest distro to use as a beginner
