You're going to hear a lot of recommendations, but I strongly suggest going with Fedora for your first distro. It's the least pain to get up and running with a modern, performant, up to date distro.
Ubuntu these days is its own little corner of design choices, Arch is designed to need configuration, Debian is a (purposefully) a bit slow to keep up. A lot of people say good things about Linux Mint, haven't used it myself but have used Fedora for years (including at work) and it's rock solid without much faffing.
