What linux version is the best?
Is it good?

You can't really say "get Linux", as Linux is a kernel. You can get a distribution, and I recommend Arch Linux. Perhaps it's a bit more advanced to set up than other things, but it will teach you alot!

Though I would still recommend Linux Mint if anything. It's not the most barebones, lightweight OS, nor is it the most advanced, but has a really nice, customizable balance between the two. Debian is also a nice option.
As for a desktop environment, I'd go with Cinnamon if it's available, or XFCE.

But I love GParted better than disk management! I have used it once in TF2 Linux Virtualbox to get that penguin and it feels much more fun and easier to use that

Wubi is good, and you can uninstall using itself without going through what I had to do involving MBR restoration
EDIT: All versions of Linux Mint are based on Ubuntu
