If the distros didn’t matter nobody would have strong preference. Instead there are Distro wars raging for years now, with plenty of casualties.
For me the preference came from reliability. I tried many distros and they never worked well. They either had bugs or didn’t work the way I wanted to. When I finally found what suits me, you can be damn sure I will tell everyone who listens that its the best distro on the whole planet… FOR ME. But I will gladly recommend it as well 😊
I think the combo hardware + kind of person can create many unique preferences… almost distro-count amounts of preferences 😀

Distro wars? Most I see is “my Debian system is very stable” Vs “I can setup arch in 5 seconds while blindfolded”. Doesn’t look to me like a vim Vs Emacs case.

I’m just gonna say that Fedora has completely solved my distro hopping, for me it has the right balance between cutting edge and stability. It’s been years since I changed distros
