What Linux desktop os would people recommend?
I would look at Fedora or Pop_OS if you're wanting something Ubuntu based.
Fedora is a direct competitor with Ubuntu, in no way is it Ubuntu based. Fedora is a "root" distro, a base from which others are built. It is based on nothing, it is built from scratch.
In the Ubuntu world, Debian is Fedora's counterpart. It is a "root" distro based on nothing and built from scratch. On it is built Ubuntu.
Pop_OS is decent, but I would avoid it as a newbie because it is not as polished as Ubuntu and lacks the broad compatibility and isn't as easy to use because it is more locked down. We tried it, it is nice, but it has problems that something based on Ubuntu shouldn't have and not things I'd want someone just learning Linux to deal with.
I fail to see where I said Fedora is Ubuntu based. Though I suppose if you misread the use of "or" you could come to that conclusion. Also, it sounds like you and I have had different experiences with Pop_OS.
I read it exactly like Scott did... LOL

That's because it is missing a comma

Wrestling with GPOs.

Wrestling with GPOs.
Same, at the same time as getting a software deployed for a test bed for a customer. ADUC keeps telling me a object's distinguished name doesn't exist (when I'm calling it from said server....)

I'm so glad those days are behind me... My current EMR no longer supports IE... I think we have one or two sites that still use it.. but few people actually deal with that.
