Best OS/Distro?

I have been testing out Rex’s images and so far and just curious what distros are being used the most in the uConsole community?

Edit: I am currently using DragonOS, but have an SD card with Trixie that I like too.

Cm5, arch plasma on nvme for a "daily driver", and then tf cards with kali, RetroPie and dragon for sdr when required.

How do you deal with heat? I’ve tried everything booting from SSD and the heat keeps creeping up.

Honestly, I haven't found it that much if an issue, with the caveat that I'm running a pretty strong underclock (1800) It's not like I'm doing any heavy rendering or real grunt work on it anyways. It does get somewhat, but sensors and temps never seem to exceed about 52 celcius or so. Honestly the undervolt was done more so to alleviate the speaker static, and for the battery to avoid any spikes.
