My favorite and the longest I’ve used was Antergos until they stopped maintaining it. At the time, it was the most popular Arch-with-an-installer distro. Before that, I was a fan of Peppermint OS simply because it was a beautiful looking distro. I’m currently running Mint because I don’t have time to maintain an OS and I just want something that works. It’s pretty good I’d say.
Windows. Everything is straight forward and I can still make some custom or niche stuff work.
I don't like Linux, because a lot of programs don't work, and I don't want to create my own 3D application or DAW from scratch. Not worth my time.
I don't like Apple because the money I'd put into that I'd rather put to better use.
Xubuntu
- Simple, somewhat retro interface
- Highly customizable
- Stable as hell
- Fast
- Simple to setup
- Regular OS versions upgrades

windows

because it was already installed
If you did not recommend arch, you basically recommended poop on a stick
My favorite is chromeOS because it requires zero maintenance and I can access all my data, apps, and preferences in minutes on any compatible device by just signing into my account.
