From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Aeon btw. Immutable, rolling, no bs. Everything in Flatlaks or Distrobox is really a killer combo imo.
Also only very little software comes preinstalled which does not apply to Silverblue for example if I remember correctly.
I got arch cus its light af basically, id just install what i want/need myself
I switched to Zorin OS (from Windows) at the beginning of this year and never looked back. Great for newbies.
I can't define one favorite distro. I change my daily driver sometimes but it's always something Arch based, even though I think OpenSUSE Tumbleweed is the ultimately best distro/base.
I use Bunsenlabs and like it a lot
Really depends on what you do and value. I use lots of kde software, so kde distros are my go to. then one big diffrence between distros is how they get updated. do you want the latest updates asap on the costs of stability, or do you want an effing never crashing distro but lag behind in updates a few months/years, or a middleground.
These are the two points i considered when i choose.

Arch (cachyos) on my desktop, Debian on my server.
Doesn’t really get any better than those two in my opinion
