Next time when someone asks me which #Linux do I use my answer will be

@darth but where is all the fun in that?

Why not a more elaborate answer like:
I started out with
Than I switched to (now ) for the sole reason it had the right drivers for my cd-rw drive.
I looked at a few times and still use that in a lot of places when I want a system that I can keep sort of up to date but especially stable.
I have used and but found them lacking as a server operating system.
I have used some and and and and the likes but those always seem to be failing in places I don’t expect them too and I don’t really like their package manager systems.
I have dabbled in and now and then, but back in the day I was often put off by unexpected parts of German language interface that distracted me.
I did use and and but by now their user friendliness seems to hold me back rather than help me...

It took a while, but I finally evaluated the survey. Thanks to everyone! 👍 ❤️

I was surprised by the high number of BSD users, significantly more than Win or Mac! Fantastic!

And with Linux, Debian clearly dominates ahead of Fedora, Arch and then Mint. The big surprise is Slackware! It's great that so many people still use it!

Today, someone reached out to me by email just to say "thank you" for my Box Collection with different types of including all general (, , , ,..) and (, , ...) distributions.

It was just an email, rather than an issue or bug and someone took some efforts to look up my mail and to write me. It made me very happy & we should much more honour the work of others! It reminded me of how much we now take software for granted in our daily life. Things we do and handle our daily business... Even if we don't donate anything or only small amounts, we should always show respect for the time and effort of the author and maintainer. Even a small personalized email can bring great joy :)
