The first step after installation is checking for available updates:

menu > all > install updates

Hopefully, by the time everyone responds, we'll have more than 10 things, but here's #2:

Run Lite Software. This lets one install and remove a number of common Linux applications such as Google Chrome, Java, Catfish File Search, a games pack, Steam, Kodi, Restricted Extras (practically a must-have), Skype, TeamViewer, Tor, VirtualBox, and more...

Next, I remove the packages I don't use like GIMP, Thunderbird, and the Virtualbox utils. Then I install a few things I need like qbittorrent, mtpaint, bleachbit, and calibre.

Then I change the layout and content of the panel. I do not like big menus so I use the standard menu and get rid of whisker menu. I then edit the menu to only display what I want to see.

The entire process takes me maybe 20 minutes on a fresh install...
