Currently i'm using mint, and i have no issues so far. Before mint, i used pop _os!. So i would go with mint as my favorite so far.

Also Debian. It's rock-solid and just works. Though I have a couple of older machines with Salix OS, and one with Puppy Linux, that served me well for a while. Termux is also good for fooling around on mobile, and Alpine for testing things out in a VM.

Knoppix is a cool distro (and useful!) 

CrunchBang is one of my favorites.  And just plain Debian.  I like the development which has gone into MX Linux also (especially the custom tools).

Ubuntu/Debian. Ohh, and it is NOT GNU/Linux anymore than a new car is Good Year/Ford.


You need those tires to run your car, and you appreciate the quality of the product, but it's still just a Ford.

Gentoo, because I can perform extreme customization and optimization for
my hardware, compiling the kernel with only the necessary drivers and
features, setting the correct USE flags for Portage, and using the LTO
Overlay, which makes for a highly efficient GNU/Linux system. :D
