Tbh, that's a kinda boring question. Only total beginners will have a strong opionion. Everyone who's been around the block for a while knows that you use the right tool for the right job and also understands that people have different preferences.

If there really was a clear "best Linux distro" for all use cases, then there would not be Linux distros but one clear winner that everyone uses.

There's a bunch of good distros, there are enough lists of them, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. That's as far as you'll get with posts like this.

And it's quite plain to see that the crowd here is a bit more adult than the kids in the Linux subs on Reddit.
