I’m looking for a Linux distribution that is:

1. Completely beginner-friendly out of the box (includes codecs, NVIDIA drivers, and useful system tweaks like ntsync, preempt=full, etc.).

2. Ships with vanilla GNOME.

3. Provides up-to-date packages.

4. Supports Flatpak alongside traditional package management.

Fedora comes close, but it’s not ideal since it requires manual setup for codecs and NVIDIA drivers.

Have you considered something like #Bazzite or #Bluefin? Fedora based but with included drivers and codecs. Traditional packaging a little less, but with Flatpaks I don't think you really need that anymore nowadays?

Hey, i am a little sceptical about atomic distros. In the past, i had some troubles running them. I think it's still too early to adopt an atomic desktop, but let's see. They will eventually become default. Thanks.
