Experienced Linux users, what are you using?

If you have been using Linux for +10 years, what are you using now? Been using Linux for over a decade, and last few years Ubuntu (on desktops/laptops), plus Debian on servers, but been looking to switch to something like “Canonical”-y for a long time. Appreciate recommendations or just a interesting discussion.

The answer is Debian like crabs on a long enough timeline it will eventually become Debian. - Linux user for 27 years

That's how it should work, I think. All the downstream distros do their crazy experiments, the community identifies what it likes and doesn't like, and what it likes makes its way upstream to spawn. The further upstream it gets, the wider its influence is felt. Debian is what makes it that far upstream.

I see this view as true. Downstream shit sucks. I’ve tried them all. Debian 8s the only thing that keeps bugs out. Sometimes you need a work around for a game or whatever but atleast shit works everytime.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
