Share Your Favorite Linux Distros and Why You Love Them

So we can clearly see the most popular distros and the reasons why people use them, please follow this format:

  • Write the name of the Linux distro as a first-level comment.
  • Reply to that comment with each reason you like the distro as a separate answer.

For example:

  • Distro (first-level comment)
    • Reason (one answer)
    • Other reason (a different answer)

Please avoid duplicating options. This will help us better understand the most popular distros and the reasons why people use them.

  • KDE Neon

    • Based on Ubuntu, is KDE's "flagship" OS (so I trust they know what they're doing with their own DE), and is the first to get bleeding edge KDE updates. Everything else is pretty much standard Ubuntu.

      • I installed this on my wife's aging laptop to breathe some new life into it. She's not tech savvy but gets along with it just fine. Mission accomplished.

        Funny side note though, because Linux doesn't force you to update unlike Windows, it means she just doesn't ever update the thing. I've opened it up a couple different times to see pending security updates ready to download. 😆
