I just use Debian with KDE Plasma. Way cleaner than Ubuntu.

Depends on usage. I'm starting to see Linux on the types of industrial equipment that used to run the embedded flavours of Windows, and those are usually Ubuntu. When dealing with the developers of miscellaneous projects, Fedora seems to come up quite often, and everything production is Debian.

Fastest growing seems to be CachyOS for some reason. Ubuntu is still the most popular if you count Kubuntu etc, otherwise probably Mint.
