Noob-Friendly L4T Ubuntu is a project that provides a pre-configured image of Ubuntu for Tegra Linux on the Switch. It is based on the port by @bylaws and aims to make Linux more accessible to beginners. It includes some software such as Retroarch, Dolphin, Steam and Chromium.
It also has a rough guide on how to install and use it. You need a first-gen Switch, a SD card of at least 32Gb, a computer with internet connection and a USB drive. You can download the image from the links provided in the first post1 and flash it to your SD card using balenaEtcher. Then you can resize the partitions on your SD card using GParted Live or another Linux tool.
You can then boot into L4T Ubuntu by injecting hekate and selecting more configs and then L4T. The username and password are both "switch". You can also pair your joycons wirelessly by following the instructions in the guide.
