If they are willing and able to learn something with a radically different interface: Fedora.
If they aren’t: Linux Mint. There is nothing easier for a former windows user than Mint and it has a ton of built in tools for any kind of user. Not to mention forums support and massive package repos (+ built in flatpak).
Calling GNOME a radically different interface is kind of overstating it. It basically just replaces the taskbar/dock with the overview
Maybe overstating it some, but it requires a different way of thinking about the desktop to be used to its full potential.
