Good question. Ubuntu seems to be the best all-around software I found that works with the equipment I've got here. I like the idea that when I get to a company like TP-Link for network devices, they have Ubuntu Ready software now! Most Ubuntu software has been fairly easy to install. Then, as for usage, I enjoy both the Ubuntu Desktop series on the workstations, but then we have a Ubuntu Server here at the house, which soon will allow me to play with a sandbox version of the website for building code.

Now, like the website, which is on a Redhat family of AlmaLinux.

You're right, there is a huge family tree here.

I've played with several versions of Linux, but I just seem to come back to Ubuntu for stability-wise, ease of installing software, and most software is ready for Ubuntu. Like when I built the new workstations, I was kind of wondering what hardware issues I would run into. One was that Ubuntu didn't set up the nVidia drivers correctly, and the video would crash before the post finished. After now changing the video driver to the nVidia proprietary nVidia drivers that are tested, BOOM! Everything worked correctly. I'm versed in both Red Hat and Debian Families of Linux and can go either way.

I'm currently running Debian on my home pc's. Believe I have raspberry pi lite on my raspi 4B. That has Open Media Vault installed to use it for my Network accessible storage. Took a bit to get everything working as I'm completely self taught. Been tossing around the idea of trying a different distro. Really been looking at Qubes OS as its designed to sandbox other distros, so I could try multiple to find what works best.
