I use Silverblue and in general I like their philosophy. For other distros, it can be summed up as:
Flatpaks for GUI applications
Your choice of package manager for everything else
On Silverblue anything non-Flatpak is best installed inside a container. On a non-atomic distro I'd just install using the system's default package manager.
I hope more scrutiny is given to ID.me. I'll only be using Direct File if they remove it as a dependency.

Great post - I agree, Linux Mint or Ubuntu sound appropriate for OP. Solid systems with a lot of support.
