Math is big. A good place to start building your intuition may be by learning proofs. I‘m currently revisiting math by working through Chartrand [0]. As a non-mathematician, I would recommend this text as a foundation, and a possible bridge to advanced subjects.
IMO Xubuntu is a no-frills, simple and reliable Linux distro that is good for daily use on middle-aged and newer machines, but also good for giving older hardware a chance to feel snappy and responsive even as it ages. Device drivers are available and “just work”. I don’t need a fancy UI and window animations. The low overhead and relative simpleness of the OS are it’s best features.
I don’t have a lot of fuss that wouldn’t also be had with many other Linux distros. The occasional manual fix and stack overflow search for some minor issue, the aging repositories that may or may not be maintained anymore, etc.
Xubuntu has been a daily driver for me for a decade. The donation link is good to know about, thank you!
Also, may be good to check out their list of “officially endorsed” products, which seems to help the project too. Not sure how this stacks up compared to a direct donation of course.
