If you have been using Linux for +10 years, what are you using now?

Been using Linux for over a decade, and last few years Ubuntu (on desktops/laptops), plus Debian on servers, but been looking to switch to something less “Canonical”-y for a long time (since the Amazon search fiasco, pretty much).

Appreciate recommendations or just an interesting discussion about people’s experiences, there are no wrong answers.

Edit: Thanks for the lots of interesting answers and discussions. I will try a few of the suggestions in a VM.

    Gaming PC - Nobara (Fedora base with lots of gaming-specifc kernel optimizations baked in.)

    Personal laptop - Linux Mint

    Business laptop - Linux Mint Debian Edition

    Junk/Test laptops - Void

    Home lab main hypervisor - XCP-ng (Highly customized Fedora under the hood.)

    NAS - TrueNAS (Debian under the hood.)

    Virtual servers - Mostly Debian, but a few Alma Linux VMs to get that RHEL experience. Ubuntu Server for my self-hosted gaming servers.

    Steam Deck - SteamOS (Valve’s immutable spin of Arch.)
