LOL, I've actually tried Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSUSE, Puppy Linux, DSL, Tiny Core, and even the true outlier (not quite Linux or Unix though) Microsoft Xenix before. I've probably even tried a couple other distros before but only very briefly.

It takes effort to break them in any way that I can't manage to figure out how to fix.

I settled on Linux Mint as my daily runner, but one of these days I might have to give TempleOS a spin in a virtual machine..

    Try an atomic distro too, if you haven't yet. It's a completely different experience from regular Linux - specially the ones that take care of everything for you like UBlue's.

    As a chaos monkey, I haven't broken this atomic distro in a few years. It usually takes me less than a year to break my distro's package system beyond my comprehension (or something equally important, but it's usually the packages).
