I labeled some of the lesser known logos. The criteria are arbitrary and I made this based on how much I liked using it.

Note that Fedora Sway Atomic isn't bad, but I had a bad experience because I was trying to install NIri on it and it clearly wasn't meant for that. Basically, it's just not for me.

I wanted to rank Manjaro low because I heard bad things about it, but I think I used it for like a few minutes because I wanted to try Gnome, and I didn't like Gnome after trying it and didn't want to deal with uninstalling all the Gnome stuff manually, so I just hopped to another distro.

Redhat and Ubuntu are controversial for me. Don't want them for desktop, but for any professional server I would choose them over any of the others (and preferably alpine for any docker containers running on them)

    So, why would you pick RedHat over Rocky or Alma?

    Or Ubuntu over Debian?

    Genuinely curious, not judging

    It's way easier to explain to customers "these companies have enterprise commitments and long term support available if needed", I realize that they all essentially run the same stuff but frankly I can't guarantee I'm always gonna be the one supporting them and it is an added safety net for when they decide not to upgrade for an eternity. Not to mention just about every VPS provider has at least one of those two options available out of the box, they're frankly the safe boring choices.
