Original question by @atmorous@lemmy.world

What Distros do you want to shoutout and why you think they are doing well/are the best at what they do?

I am curious what is out there and have only had some experience with Linux Mint, SteamOS, and Pop!_OS

I've always liked Fedora or its various derivatives like Bazzite. They seem to have defaults that make sense, and fairly up to date software.

I also find dnf on Fedora to be a bit nicer and more streamlined compared to apt, and I've heard it's significantly easier to package software for dnf as well.
