I agree, but where do we go from here? I reluctantly would like to turn
this into a which-distro-would-you-recommend-for-switchers-poll.

Mint has been (past tense) my go-to recommendations for
Windows-switchers and I agree that these incidents are troublesome to
say the least, so what would be a good distro to recommend to someone
who would or could switch but "won't eventually want to learn how to
build a kernel by themselves" (sorry Arch folks... I love you all but
this is not one for you).
