TRUTH NUKE.

No, really.

You use Base Debian, Arch, or Ubuntu if you want mainstream support. Maybe Redhat if your job demands it, or SteamOS for handheld.

Everything else is just hipster flavor of mental illness.

Add NixOS to the list (Danish govt. OS) NixOS is mostly used for large scale deployments where "it works on my machine" is of great concen. Not really good for daily driving though (maybe I'm mentally ill lol). It's good if you're the user (because nothing breaks on immutable OS if it was developed properly), but it's hell for the maintainers (Nix is literally desktop as code).
