Good time of the day.
There is a desire to move from Windows to Linux. At work (state organization), the boss suggested Mageia with php5 and Maria DB installed immediately.
I installed this distribution kit on VMware and 'poked around' a bit, but this is not enough in my opinion.
I would like to know your opinion about Mageia and should I immediately work with this distribution? Or try Mint, Ubuntu, openSUSE.

Install Ubuntu. For a beginner, that's it.

The software installed out of the box is not an argument. In Ubuntu, and in any decent distro, php and MariaDB are installed with one command.

There was quite a working distribution kit earlier. If you only need mysql and php - there is no difference what to use. Though slackware. All this is not difficult to put, even for a beginner.
Drive on a virtual machine Mint, Ubuntu, openSUSE, maybe you will like something more.

The first distribution was CentOS. In the future, when mastering other operating systems, there were no problems.

Personally, I started with Mageia. I've been driving it for two years now and I don't want to put anything else.
