Vanilla Ubuntu (boo! hiss!). It gets the job done and is out of the box usable with easy flatpak installs. It is 2025, there is no need to tinker with a desktop distro unless you're deploying on ancient or exotic hardware.

Hardware isn't the only thing worth tinkering though. Coonfigur coonfiguring DE and WMs might actually be more productive and efficient in doing things
I love Ubuntu's default yaru theme, and gnome extensions. It seems currently the best distro on my Thinkpad which is unfortunately pretty incompatible to most linux distros due to the shitty Qualcomm WLAN drivers.
Plus Ubuntus package repository is pretty robust.
The only negative thing IMO is snaps being kind of iffy. I don't think they are that bad but they seem a little too forced on the user.
Like Flatpak is kind of default on Fedora but they almost never force them on you.
I've got a feeling that I leave arch, just to come back to it... Almost a year without Arch.

They had to invent a package manager for repackaged debs and GitHub repos. Very elite

first place is tied with arch and debian, second might include RHEL.
everything else is non deterministic.
Shirt colours are, or need to be, swapped. Blue guy's shirt is more like the Arch logo's colour and green guy is signalling Mint or maybe SUSE.
I guess this means this is the perfect time to say: I use LMDE, btw.
Honestly it's usually the Arch Cultists that don't want opinions
